Buddhism day was exciting! Firstly, we spoke about Buddhists and what they ate and wore (they like to eat rice.)
Most of the boys normally wear waistcoats and the girls normally wear saris. I put my hand up to dress up as a Buddha, and I was told what to say and do. (I looked pretty funny.) There were also some other children who got dressed up too. We acted it out and everyone else loved it. The man also told us that most Buddhists are vegetarians and do not like killing any animals. After that, we did some colouring in the style of Buddhists and made some lanterns that were very vibrant. I really enjoyed it!

Mrs Stacey had the pleasure of taking a small group of girls to a Swimming Gala at Canford School. After they had got over the shock of the amazing facilities, the girls performed really well against nine other East Dorset schools. The results included 3rd in the Yr6 25m Butterfly and 4th in the Yr5 50m Freestyle. Needless to say, we are very proud of the girls’ achievements.
The Netball Tournament
On the 17th of January Miss Tinsley took 16 children to a netball tournament at Lychett Minster School.
When we arrived at the school, we did a warm up and got into the courts for our first match of the tournament. We were split into two teams yellow and blue. The first match that the blues played was against Lytchett reds. we won against them 3-1 Unfortunately the yellows lost against the Blacks for Lychett.
The second match that was played on the two courts was Upton blues and Lychett Blacks. Upton yellows played Lychett reds and sadly lost but Upton blues lost as well.
As it came to the end of the tournament we had to play Upton vs Upton and Lychett vs Lychett. Upton blues won and Lychett blacks won.
We were told by the head of PE at the manor who came where on the leaderboard.4TH was Upton Yellows, 3RD was Lychett Reds, 2RDwas Upton Blues and 1ST came Lychett Blacks.
Thank you to miss Tinsley and everyone who made this happen. Plus everyone that participated in the tournament.
Thank you Miss Tinsley!!!!!
