The pupils are engaged in an Erasmus+ project with 4 other schools in France, Romania and Portugal titled 5x4ODD Schools on the Road to Sustainable Development and are currently working on SDG3 'Health and Wellbeing'. All 5 European schools ran a language challenge to celebrate EDL and sport. Inclement weather on the day led to the Crossbar Challenge taking place in the gym rather than the outdoor pitches.
Erasmus pupils coached students in the 3 languages of the project focusing on the languages each will use on their visits to Europe. Pupils also competed in Spanish, which is taught alongside French in the school. To win a chance to kick and hit the crossbar pupils had to say a sentence in the foreign language. Pupils could try and take a shot multiple times but had to use a different sentence or phrase each time. In the end, the winning language was Romanian scoring 12, Spanish came second with 11 and French and Portuguese had 2 strikes each and 4 individual prizes were awarded to pupils who succeeded in hitting the crossbar more than once. Boys in particular were keen to join in and have a work out both in languages and football skills at the same time.
