Good morning everyone – I hope you all managed to get your sports day activities completed and results sent to Mrs Ferguson.  I have a good feeling that lots of Douglas people will have sent in their scores and we will be flying high….GO DOUGLAS

Today it is time for our annual school Fun Run.  Normally we would all be heading over to the playing field to complete our run:

1 lap round the field for the nursery, Primary 1 and Primary 2

2 laps round the field for Primary 3 and Primary 4

and     4 laps round the field for Primary 5, Primary 6 and Primary 7

The good news for Primary 7 is that they will not have to do an extra lap with their buddies   This year I am asking you to run around your garden instead of the playing field – but that means you will need to do more laps!  To make it easier I would like you to walk, jog or run for a number of minutes instead of a number of laps:

Primary 1, Primary 2 and nursery will jog for 5 minutes

Primary 3 and Primary 4 will jog for 10 minutes

Primary 5, Primary 6 and Primary 7 will jog for 15 minutes

This may seem like a long time, but it is probably less time that it would have taken out on the field – and remember the staff will be joining in too If possible you could listen to some music when you’re jogging – that always helps me   There is a good link below……..

If you can, please take a photo of you completing your run and send it to me, Mrs Ferguson or your class teacher.

Good luck everyone
