District Sports - Day 2, and a great result for Prae Wood...
23/06/2026 1:12 PM
Day 2 of District Sports was dominated by the sprint and relay finals, however there were also field events taking place plus the 600m.
Prae Wood had eight sprinters returning for their finals along with three out of our four relay teams. Our best placed finalists were Ted in Year 3 who came 2 in the 70 metres and Hannah in Year 6 who came 2 in the 100 metres.
Autumn and Finn (pictured) represented Prae Wood in the 600 metres. Finn led from the front and won the race with a very assured performance. Autumn finished a very respectable 3 in the girls race.
Hannah (Y6) also achieved our best field events placing, coming 5 in the high jump.
However, District Sports is all about team performance. Overall, the girls finished 2 and the boys 4th. What we didn't know at the time was that their combined points total meant Prae Wood were winners of the combined trophy (an Excel spreadsheet had originally awarded the trophy to another school). Mrs Paine was delighted to be able to tell all of key stage 2 the great news in assembly. We look forward to receiving our very well deserved team trophy!
Mayor visits Prae Wood

We finished off our brilliant sustainability week activities with a visit from Mayor, Matt Fisher. Wearing his mayoral chains, he was delighted to join our assembly and present certificates to Year 5 for all their fantastic work this year, planning and delivering events for Sustainability Week 2026 as well as completing 'The Green Schools Project', taking action to reduce our carbon footprint over the past six weeks.
Cricket v Park Street
23/06/2026 12:21 PM
Having had to postpone our first league game against Park Street due to thunderstorms, today the team faced another extreme: hot weather. However, cool captaincy from Krish meant the field was well organised and supported. Krish won the 'rock, paper, scissors' and put the team in to bowl.
Some excellent bowling and fielding saw Prae Wood take more wickets than their opponents which contributed to our win as for every wicket taken, the batting team lose five runs. Batting is always tricky on a primary school wicket but it did not stop Otto hitting a six!
This third league win should guarantee the team a spot in finals day which is coming up in July.
