Last Saturday Ash led the first ever Saturday morning Animation Club at the Cobblers Study Centre. Students from Danetre Seconday School attended the club as part of a Cobblers outreach programme. Take a look at the first weeks work below! All throughout the week our Playing for Success groups from Green Oaks, The Grange and Kingsthorpe College have been taking part in stadium tours around the Sixfields Stadium. The groups have been given exclusive access to all parts of the stadium and have seen inside the changing rooms, players lounges, training centre and the police cells. The groups were all provided with digital cameras to take photographs of their tours and back in the Study Centre they all logged on to I Am Learning to take part in a quiz about the stadium. The photos that the groups took will all be used in future sessions at the Cobblers Study Centre. We can’t wait to have everyone back next week!
We went to the stadium and went to the top of the stands and put the tape measure to measure the height of the stands, it was 4 metres. We put out the parachutes out at arms length then let them go. Our partners timed our parachutes when they went to the bottom. when we got back to the study centre we got out the calculator and worked out the speed by working out the distance divided by the time. My parachute took 3.81 secs to to get to the ground. This means that my parachute travelled at 1.05 m/s. Written by Josh. This evening we were joined by a group of boys from Kingsthorpe College. In their first Playing for Success session at the Cobblers Study Centre the boys made name badges and played team games whilst getting to know the staff. Next week the boys will be taking a tour of the Sixfields Stadium with video and digital cameras. Check back next week to see what they get up to. Take a look at what Sixfields looked like on Tuesday evening during our PfS session.
This evening we welcomed a Year Five Playing for Success group from Green Oaks Primary School. The session kicked off with circle time where all the Study Centre staff and the PfS students introduced themselves to each other. We were also joined by Michael, Kieran and Kayleigh who are all from local secondary sschools, they worked as mentors throughout the session helping the children with their ICT skills. The group made some fantastic name badges and finished the session by picking their Champions League teams for the term.
“It has been a good first day, I have played a game where you have to put a hoop round a circle but you cant let go of people’s hands. We did a questionnaire and made colourful name badges, it was good. ” Cameron Next week we will be going on a Stadium tour so don’t forget your coats! |
