Soul bowl

Soul Bowl, Morecambe September 2024

Today’s Culture Capital trip involved Calder class visiting Soul Bowl in Morecambe.  This was a new experience for some of the pupils.

The children who had been bowling before volunteered to share their knowledge with the inexperienced pupils.  They offered advice about the appropriate sized bowling balls to use and some tried to demonstrate their bowling techniques.  After quite a lot of noisily launched balls (thrown in a shot put style), the children listened to advice and learned to roll the balls with improved precision.  Two pupils achieved ‘strikes’ which was the highlight of their day.

This trip helped the new class to build relationships with each other.  Hopefully, this will be the first of many enjoyable Culture Capital trips this academic year.
