Last week, on a glorious Thursday afternoon the sun was shining, spirits were high and competition was fierce. Smith's Wood's own superheroes bounced, ran, pulled, threw, and balanced to the very best of their ability to compete in our prestigious sports day. A fantastic time was had by all with many children taking home well-deserved first place stickers!

Each week, during our Friday Achievement assembly, we celebrate our ‘Pupils of the Week’ from each year group. Pupils are recognised for this weekly award for a variety of reasons and are nominated by their class teacher. They may have excelled in a particular subject through the week; may have shown one, or more, of the school values in abundance, or they may have impressed their teacher, or other staff members with a huge amount of effort. Whatever they are nominated for, they are recognised in the whole school achievement assembly, receive a certificate to take home and get to wear one of our prestigious black and gold t-shirts. 
During the assembly, we also celebrate children who have 100% attendance for the week and have been in school every day on time. A lucky dip, of all children who are eligible takes place, and one pupil walks away with £5 to spend on whatever they want, Standards and presentation of a child’s book, chosen at random, are also reviewed and celebrated with the school and the child, whose book has been chosen, has the chance to win a dip out of the basket of goodies, as long as they have used their best handwriting every day, completed their feed forward marking and taken care in the presentation of their date and learning objective. We are extremely proud of all of the efforts of our pupils and the Friday Achievement assembly recognises this pride.

The children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 had a fantastic time during their Sports Day on Monday 10^th July. They all took part in 8 different races and showed our school values in abundance. They showed real determination during the tug of war and also worked very hard during the mix circuit which was a difficult race with different obstacles in the way. The children were awarded many stickers, and all enjoyed taking part.
