Academic Year 2024 - 2025

Speed Stacking

A group of Year 1 and 2 children visited Layston First School to take part in a Speed Stacking event. Speed stacking is an exciting and fun activity where children stack and unstack colourful cups in set patterns as quickly as they can. The children had so much fun racing against the clock and each other, cheering loudly with every successful stack. It helped them build coordination, focus, and teamwork while sharing lots of laughs and high-fives. Their enthusiasm was contagious, and the room buzzed with energy and excitement! Well done everyone for represent Millfield School Values during this event.

Cross Country

Year 3 and Year 4 children were excited to visit Edwinstree School in November when they took part in a Cross Country Event. Children supported one another to complete this challenge – a big well done to all our Year 3 and 4 runners.

Year 3 Pupil Voice: 

Every time we ran round we got a sticker. I got 4 stickers for running 4 laps outside.

Sports Week

Sports Week was a fantastic event enjoyed by every child across the school, with each key stage joining in the fun and competition. Working in their house teams, the children rotated through eight exciting activities, earning points along the way. From the classic egg-and-spoon race to beanbag throwing and goal scoring, there was plenty of laughter, determination, and team spirit on display.

The excitement continued with the flat sprint races, where the children gave it their all to cross the finish line. Stickers were proudly awarded to the first, second, and third place runners, celebrating their speed and effort.

To make the event even more special, our own Year 3 and 4 ‘Sports Stars’ stepped up to support the youngest children in EYFS. It was a brilliant display of teamwork, encouragement, and sporting fun throughout the whole school.
