String Games and Knuckle Bones

Concentration!

Ella can do the four of diamonds with her eyes shut!

I think Sharnteigh might win the knucklebones championship...
Now that the Spooner Shield tournament has taken place, it is time to focus on other skills. As part of our physical education programme we are experiencing the traditional activities of string games and knucklebones. This is a great opportunity to learn about PERSEVERENCE, particularly with knuckle bones. We have some very skilful string gamers but knucklebones is proving to be quite a challenge. Parents and grandparents, show off your skills to the younger generation!
