From athletics relays and
dodgeball to football, tag rugby,
badminton, Capture the Flag and
the ever-popular Heads,
Shoulders, Knees and Cones, this
year's Sports Camp had
something for everyone.
The action got underway with a
warm-up athletics relay that
quickly brought out the competitive
spirit and plenty of enthusiastic
cheering from teammates. Over
the next three days, our young
athletes threw themselves into a
fantastic range of sports and team
games, including dodgeball,
football, Treasure Island, Danish
Long Ball, Bench Ball, Scatter
Ball, Tag Rugby, Capture the Flag
and badminton.
In August, 80 Year 4 and 5
children from eight Chester
primary schools joined us for three
energetic days of sport, teamwork
and fun as part of our annual
Sports Camp, led by QPHS staff.
Now in its ninth successful year,
the camp has become a muchloved part of our transition
programme. It gives children the
opportunity to experience life at
QPHS, make new friends and
Each activity was designed to
build confidence, encourage
teamwork and help children try
something new. The enthusiasm
they brought each day was
brilliant to see.
Whether they were racing across
the field, scoring goals, making
catches or cheering on their
teammates, the children threw
themselves into every challenge.
There were plenty of smiles, lots
of encouragement and new
friendships formed along the way,
making the camp a fantastic
experience from start to finish.
A huge thank you to all the Year 4
and 5 children who took part and
made the camp such a success.
We loved welcoming you to QPHS
and can't wait to see many of you
again in the future!
