Girls Tag Rugby

A huge well done to some of our year 3 and 4 girls: Ellie Sweeney, Grace Reilly, Daisy Marshall-Fox, Jazmine Atkins, Grace Davis and Olivia Parker. The students attended a Tag Rugby event where they were taught many of the basic rules, followed by a match. The girls scored many individual tries and produced some outstanding defensive skills that any rugby team would have been proud of.

Having scored so many tries, our girls were given the challenge of having to make three passes before scoring a try. They continued to score with some fantastic attacking moves. The girls not only showed incredible sportsmanship and gamesmanship but also the talent to become an excellent team.  Well done!

A Cold and Muddy Cross Country Race

Running All the Way!

Yesterday, after school, four members of year 5 took on a rather muddy and cold cross country race. Arriving at Wavell School, the children were greeted by a typically freezing British day but this did not put the children off. After a quick warm up and discussion of the route the three boys, who were representing our school took to the course, pacing themselves well. With some stiff competition, all the boys finished in fantastic places and showed great determination when running the whole track. 

Next up was the girls, both of which again showed amazing perseverance and although the weather proved a challenge the fairly flat route was on their side and they manged to finish the race in no time. 

Well done to Ella Bento, Chloe Purvis, Taio Odmire, Alfie Ralls and Ellis Wells. I am already looking forward to the next race in March!
