Bitterne Manor children get Dancing!

Solent University brought the dance mats into the hall today where every child in school had the chance to strut their stuff as well as taking part in the competition.  Results have been collated and there is a winner from each year group who will receive a certificate.  These results will also be compared to other schools across the city in a Dance mat league.

Junior Police Community Support Officers

These are our Year 6 pupils taking part in their first 'JPCSO' session with our local PCSOs from Hampshire Constabulary. The scheme helps our older pupils learn about their own personal safety and we hope will build their confidence to handle difficult situations. All the children were very enthusiastic in their new role but they were just trying on the uniforms and they will not be given any statutory powers....!

Bring on the Olympics

Some children from Bitterne Manor were lucky enough to watch Britains Olympic divers training session at the Quays. Pete Waterfield, Stacey Powell and Chris Mears took to the boards and amazed us with a display of acrobatic diving. They then took time to come and talk to the children and answer their questions.
