Coventry School Games – Year 3 Gymnastics

On Wednesday 28th February, 10 children from Year 3 represented Coundon at the Coventry School Games gymnastics competition. This event was held at the Tribe Cheer and Dance unit, giving the children a very professional venue to compete at. Miss Ferris and Miss Thompson worked hard on the run up to the competition, providing extra opportunities to practise the routines to ensure that all of the children felt prepared and confident to take part. They couldn’t be prouder of the children’s hard work leading up to the competition and the way the children represented the school while there! They were amazing ambassadors! All children performed to an outstanding standard on the day, received lots of praise from other schools and cheered on all the children there representing other schools.

All of their hard work paid off when they received FIRST PLACE out of the schools in Coventry East and West that had entered, taking them through to the County Finals on Friday 18th March… absolute super stars, well done!

KS2 Christmas Carol Concert

It was a wonderful experience for pupils, parents and carers from year three to year six to hold Coundon’s Christmas Carol Concert at Coventry Cathedral. The choir were a credit to the school singing beautifully at the front, with a beautiful duet from Ruby and Eva – all brought together with pupil’s readings and a tableau of the first Christmas.

We were blown away by the quality of work and it was lovely to see and hear children’s pride in their art work. The gallery looked professional and really gave status to the children’s work and skills.
