We have recenlty changed our Sports teams names based on important, life changing work we have been completing as a school. This year we have been promoting recycling, in order to enhance the awareness on plastic pollution and its devestating effects on the environment. The new team names are based on animals facing endangerment as a result of plastic pollution around the world- The Loggerhead Sea Turtles, The Baleen Whales, The Steller Sea Lions and The Laysan Albatross. This years Sports Day points are as follows:

The Loggerhead Sea Turtles- 295 points

The Steller Sea Lions- 480 points

The Laysan Albatross- 405 points

The Baleen Whales- 365 points

Well done to all of our pupils for your phenomenal effort, stamina and determination on Sports Day! Thank you once again to all parents, pupils and staff who helped to make the day a success!

This year we held our annual Sports Presentation Evening on Wendesday 17th July. We invited the whole of KS2 to join us in celebrating their fantastic hard work and skill in sports over the past year. Pupils and parents recieved fruit kebabs and refreshments, whilst every child recieved multiple awards that recognised and highlighted their dedication and efforts in a variety of sports. To finish off the evening we held a free sports raffle for our pupils that had some really exciting prizes up for grabs! Killingholme Primary would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thankyou to all of the providers that kindly donated prizes for our sports raffle, this support makes the evening all the more exciting and fun for our pupils and we appreciate your generosity greatly.
