As you may be aware Dan the Skipping Man has been back at school for the past two days revitalising our love of skipping and showing us some great ways to skip and use on the playground as one of our ‘Active 30 minutes’ activities.

Every child at school has had the opportunity to take part in a 30 minute skipping workshop with Dan, their Teachers and TAs. We learned different ways of skipping with an individual rope such as single bounce, double bounce, running skip and even the lasso. We also learned how how to jump a long rope and double dutch ropes. Dan was very impressed with our skipping and now we will be able to improve our skipping skills every day.

What an amazing time we all had developing our skipping skills.

A big shout out to Ashton who was picked out from the whole school for his resilience and 100 % cooperation, winning a super skipping rope.
