Year 4 children in St Teresa Class at Our Lady Queen of Heaven Catholic Primary School choreographed a dance based upon the Olympic value, determination.
To create the dance, St Teresa Class started by thinking about the moments where they have needed determination and how they felt beforehand - frustrated, unfocused, upset wanting to scream.

Beckie Johnson, St Teresa Class teacher, said: "We chose the Olympic value determination because as a class we have been focusing on this in all areas of our learning.
"We cheer and punch the air at the end because we have been successful in using determination across our learning especially with the school closures.
"I am very proud of St Teresa Class. This is a fantastic achievement for them."
