All children MUST have a PE kit and suitable footwear in school at all times. Any children participating in Miss Haydon’s after school clubs MUST have either a change of suitable clothes or wear their school PE kit to participate. Too many children are attending after school clubs wearing their school uniform.
|
Miss Haydon will only allow children to her after-school clubs if a signed consent form has been returned to school and children have appropriate clothing to wear.
Please can I remind parents that ALL children must have a PE Kit in school at all times
and a change of footwear e.g. Pumps/Trainers.
All children MUST participate in their PE lessons as PE is a compulsory part of the school’s curriculum.
Due to the cold weather children are allowed to wear black PLAIN tracksuit bottoms/leggings.

The Football season has now ended for another academic year. Miss Haydon is still awaiting our final league position which should be known after Whitsun holidays. Could all children who have played for the Football team this year, please return their kit ASAP. It is vital these kits are returned so they can be used again next year. Many thanks to parents who have already returned kits.
On Tuesday 30th April, our Year 4 Hockey participated in a hockey competition after school. |
|
The competition was a Year 4 only Hockey Competition organised by and played at Hollywood Primary School. 5 schools entered the competition (with 2 teams representing each school) and the format of the competition was a round robin league where every school got to play every other school. Both St Martin's teams were unbeaten in their respective league so came top scoring a combined total of 17 goals in their matches and winning the trophy and receiving gold medals. Congratulation, champions!
On Tuesday 9th and Wednesday 10th April, Year 1 and Year 2 successively participated in a Multi-skills Festival organised by Bishop Challoner Catholic College at Billesley Tennis Centre.
Year 1 finished 11th, Year 2, 5th and our final combined position as a school was 7th out of 19 schools. Many thanks to all staff who attended with the children. It was great to see our younger children having fun and being active. |

Miss Haydon would like to say a massive thank you to all parents and other family members who volunteer to transport children to events. Without this support, these events just couldn't take place. Also to family members and parents who watch and support: you really make a difference!

Well done, footballers!
Our Boys Football team remain unbeaten in 2019 and have only lost a single match this academic year. Over the last 2 weeks we have had a league victory over Severne Primary School and a 1/4 final cup victory over Bells Farm Primary School. Over the coming weeks we have 2 more league matches and a semi-final cup match to play. Also good luck to our Year 4/5 Football team who will participate for the very first time (this afternoon Friday) in the South Birmingham Year 4/5 Football competition. |
Go basketballers!
Our Year 5/6 Basketball team were Runners Up in the King’s Norton and South Birmingham Basketball District Plate Grand Final this week. The team played extremely well, losing out to the eventual winners Chilcote Primary School in a very close fought match which was decided by just the 1 basket. Our team was praised by other school teachers and head teachers on their overall ability, respect and sportsmanship they showed throughout the competition. |

We are very proud of our two teams. It was their first time for some children representing our school, which they did impeccably. Also a big thank you to parents/family members who attended both competitions and helped with transport. Your help and support is greatly appreciated.
