The MFL Mini Olympics took place on Tuesday 4th July when students from local primary schools came together to take part in a day of fun sports-inspired language games on the Little Reddings field. The competitive activities, masterminded by Mrs Samuels at Little Reddings School and organized together with Mrs Crespi of Bushey Meads School , included relay running, skipping, hopping, egg and spoon racing, sack racing, welly-throwing and bowling, which the pupils tackled whilst recalling French vocabulary at the same time!
An amazing team of enthusiastic Year 7 BMS Language Leaders took responsibility for specific activities, leading each team through the instructions and keeping score of timings and correct answers. These students showed excellent leadership and dedication and the whole day ran like clockwork with their help. So, a great big thank you to all of those helpers. Huge thanks of course to all of the teachers involved in making this event a success, especially Mrs Samuels, Mrs Crespi and Mr Harrop.
Following the strenuous rounds of activities, the scores were added up whilst participants enjoyed a well deserved ice-lolly and the trophy for BMS MFL Mini Olympics winner 2023 was awarded to Hartsbourne School.
We are very much looking forward to seeing you all again next year for the 2024 MFL Mini Olympics.
