Year 6 Rowing at Barnwell

Our Year 6 pupils took part in an exciting indoor rowing session this week, approaching the challenge with focus, determination and no unnecessary delays. They learned the basics of the rowing technique, worked on timing and rhythm and supported each other with speedy change overs. The children had to row 2000m per leg which they split between them so were doing 250m each. They completed 2 relays all together and both times, they came first in our group. It was great to see the communication and teamwork which was taking place during the row and the level of determination to come out on top. Everyone put in a fantastic effort, showing a high level of stamina and an overall positive attitude. This event was the perfect example of teamwork and true grit! Well done to everyone who participated!
