Help at hand!

Year 6 are still working hard and this morning learnt how to save lives! Huge thanks to Pam and Pete for coming in and teaching the children how to put people into the recovery position, how to check for broken bones and bleeding, how to clear a casualty's airways and how to apply CPR. The children had a really fun morning as well as learning some serious steps to save a persons life.

Leven school has many amazingly talented children (and staff, see Spice Girls picture), as shown by this fun competition and the many other events and lessons where they have been able to shine. Thank you to our three judges who dedicated a whole day to this special event.

LEVEN'S GOT TALENT

Michael Jackson ‘look-alike’ wins Leven’s Got Talent.
LEVEN CHURCH of ENGLAND School reverberated last week to the sounds and music of talented pupils who ‘starred’ in the first ever production of ‘Leven’s Got Talent.’
The idea for the unique talent competition came from the twenty pupils of the ‘School Council’ and from the many competitors’ seven acts made it through to the finals.
Three independent persons of the Simon Cowell variety were specially drafted in to pass judgement on the finalists so that there could be no accusations of favouritism.
All of the acts were fantastic but there always needs to be a winner and the judges chose that person to be Ben Wood who modelled his dance routines on those made famous by the ‘late’ Michael Jackson.
Ben said, “I have all his DVD’s and have been to America and was photographed with someone who looked very much like him.”
It was especially apt for Ben to win, as this is his last week at Leven School before he moves house to Beverley.
Head of School Andrew Dolman said, “ We wanted to reward the pupils for all the hard work they have applied to their studies over he past year and when we asked the school council how we should do this they came up with this idea. It has been so fantastic that it is something we hope to continue. I would especially like to thank our teacher Diedre Pearson who worked hard to make the idea into a reality.”

MICHAEL JACKSON: Today Ben Wood is Michael Jackson.

BRIDLINGTON HOCKEY TOURNAMENT

Leven's Year 5/6 hockey team travelled to take part in Bridlington Hockey Club's annual hockey tournament for schools on Sunday the 18th July. The team made up of Captain Joe, Marysia, Elliot, James, Leo, Findlay and James, returned to defend the trophy, which they won last year in a mixed team with Skirlaugh Primary. They played some fantastic hockey and made several coaches from other clubs stand up and take notice of them!

Leven first played Hornsea A in a 1-1 draw, followed by a 6-0 win over Hornsea B. Leven were then held to a 0-0 draw by last year's finalists, Martongate Primary, meaning that they needed a win in the final game against Bay Primary to retain the trophy. After a cautious 5 minutes, Leven found their scoring flair again, eventually winning 7-0! Over the course of the day everyone got well involved in all the games (nearly everyone scored at least one goal) and had a really good day out, topped off with a medal and some silverware to help them to remember their day!

Thank you to Russ & Bridlington Hockey Club for organising a great day, and a big thank you to all the parents who supported the team and transported them to and from the event,
Well done to all the children for playing some fantastic hockey, I was thoroughly proud of the way the team went about their games and how they represented the school. Well done! I hope you continue to enjoy and take part in hockey next year.

Mr Saltonstall.
