On Friday 27th June, Yasmin, Olivia, Sam, Max and Oscar went to Canterbury High School to take part in the Kent School Games.

We were selected for Speedstacking.

Everyone there had already won a competition so it was very hard. Everyone in our team tried their hardest, but sadly didn’t win, but we all really enjoyed ourselves.

Thank you to Mrs Hemsley for organising a great day.

3rd March 2009

On Tuesday 3rd March children were chosen to represent the school at a demonstration at the Camden Centre. It was in front of about 15 adults and a few of our parents and we showed all the basic moves, and even a few of the harder ones. We also were able to make and eat our own tortilla toasties afterwards.

Thank you, Mrs Walters, Mr Chandler and Mrs Benson for taking us, we are all very grateful.

On Wednesday 10th December St. James’ Speedstacking Teams, 1, 2, 3 & 4 went to St. John’s School to take part in a tournament.

Each team had a member from each year group.

First we did the 3-3-3 stack and Joe and Amy went into the ‘stack off’, however St. Marks’ won.

Then for the last set we did the timed relays and our teams 1 and 4 got through to the final, we were sure to win as it was St. James’ against St. James’ However only one team could win and that team was team 4.

Thank you to Mrs Waters and Mrs Waller for organising the fantastic evening.
