On Tuesday 5th July, we had our sports day here at Wardley and we had the pleasure of a very special guest! The Year 5/6 topic this half-term is sporting heroes, so we thought it would be a fanatstic idea to source a local sporting hero to attend our sports day. Tom Denham, from Stockton, who will represent Great Britain in freestyle wrestling in next summer's Olympic Games, gave up an afternoon of his gruelling training schedule to help out with scoring and presentations to the winners. Tom is a local hero, and he told us all about his career so far, from missing out on the Commenwealth Games in India because of a broken leg, to being on Sky Sports this year. All the children were very excited to have a rising star in our school, and it was great that he could help out with our sports day too. He spent time in the classrooms and assembly answering questions, and then presented the winning teams with their trophy and certificates. Well done to all the children who took part in sports day, and a big thanks to Tom for making the day extra special!
