SUTCOMBE Primary School children took part in an archery lesson last week as part of their PE curriculum.

Luke Messinger from the North Devon Archery Academy came into school for the afternoon to teach, both Class 1 and 2, archery.

Luke taught the children how to stand, how to hold their bow correctly, how to attach their arrow and how to safely aim and release it to hit the target.

The children listened carefully and practiced the key skills Luke taught them.

All the children were able to hit the target by the end of the lesson — a great achievement.
