Sports Days

For the second year running the sun shone on Silverhill sports days and the temperature was HOT! All the children had a thoroughly enjoyable time and took part whole heartedly. Thank you to all the parents who turned out to support and encourage the children. We hope you enjoyed the days as much as we all did. In KS2 the Brazil Team earned the most points. In KS1 the cucumbers earned first place. Special effort awards in Key Stage 1 were given to Alex, Isabel, Rachel, Ffion and Elailsa.

World Cup week

The week of 21st June was World Cup week in Silverhill. Children kept their fingers crossed for England and completed a wide range of activites to do with the World Cup. What a pity England didn't do so well!
