Today we were given an amazing opportunity by the company Enrich who came into our school and taught us how to play Quidditch, made famous by the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling.
The children attended and assembly where they were assigned to the four different houses we then waited eagerly for our turn to learn and play this new and exciting game. Throughout the day we could win bonus house points for our teams in the rest of our school work.
The children went up onto the field and listened carefully to the instructions and how the game was to be played. One person was the keeper who was in charge of defending the three goals. One was the beater who was in charge of stopping players with the bludger. The rest of the children were chasers who would pass the quaffle between them and attempt to score goals. However, one person had a special job of being the seeker, their job was to get the golden snitch and win the team 50 bonus points.
The children had a fantastic time and they all got stuck in darting, diving, ducking and defending.
Well done year 4.
At the end of the day we all gathered in the hall once again to see which team would win the house cup.
We all waited eagerly and the winners were…
Hufflepuff (yellow team).
Congratulations and thank you to Mrs Isherwood for arranging such a wonderful experience.
