Be on standby to catch the ping pong ball before it rolls off the table and this game can be played as quietly as a mouse – perfect if game night extends beyond 10PM.

Just Dance / Just Dance Kids are great games where we can enjoy learning dance routines to well-known songs. You don’t need a gaming system to enjoy the Just Dance experience – there are plenty of videos to dance along to on YouTube, a number of which are seated. We’ve found a Just Dance seated playlist here, you find more songs by searching ‘Just Dance’ and ‘Seated’, ‘Sitting’. ‘Car’ or ‘Chair’. Alternative Sports Day Equipment List - this is a comprehensive list of the equipment needed for each game and activity. Being active is great for our health and wellbeing. It maintains cardiovascular health (preventing conditions like stroke and heart disease), boosts mental health and self-esteem, and assists our bodies in managing blood sugar and insulin levels, which can help with weight control.Monday mornings involved a general parade in the main gymnasium conducted by the RSM (Regimental Sergeant Major; a Warrant Officer Class One or WO1) to inspect aspirant instructors for their dress (appearance, cleanliness and the correct clothing). Indoor training shoes (plimsolls) had to be white (paint pen required), dapper blue shorts with creases front and rear, t-shirts pressed and creases in both arms, no wearing of watches, and finally hair cut and to regulation length and style! Inspections on other days and periods were conducted by your own section Royal Army Physical Training Instructor (RAPTC) instructor. Being in the Army individuals were expected to be smart and presentable as well as knowledgeable and proficient in their roles. Passing the PTI course is considered a major hurdle, but doing so then allows an individual to work as a PTI within their own unit, or to be posted as a PTI to a training establishment. Individuals will also gain qualifications that are recognised outside the Army, providing transferable skills for life after military service.

All parents and spectators should stay in the spectator area of the playing fields to watch. There will be a great amount of activity going on therefore, we would be grateful if you do not cross the field and approach any pupils during the events. We appreciate and thank you for your support in this matter. P4-7 pupils will have an earlier lunch on Sports Day. (11.50am – 12.50pm) Peters, D.
