Striking and Fielding Festival
Year 5/6 from P4/5 had an amazing time representing Croft at a Striking and Fielding festival, which was held at North Durham Academy. We showed off our skills participating in a range of activities from diamond cricket to wobble throw. We all had a great time and were very supportive of each other-a real team…
