U10 & U11 Netball
On Saturday, the U10 and U11 netball teams had a fabulous morning playing in a pre-season netball tri with Bablake School and The Croft. The girls developed and learnt a huge amount over the games, playing well and achieving two wins, a draw and one loss.
U9, U10 & U11 Swimming
On Thursday, the U9, U10 and U11 swimmers brought festive cheer to the pool, racing in reindeer antlers, passing candy canes, swimming with snowballs and even riding a sleigh! The annual Christmas gala, a much-anticipated highlight of the term, is all about fun and festive spirit – a well-deserved reward for a term of hard work in the pool. Well done to all the swimmers for a fantastic term of dedication and achievement!
U8 Hockey
On Thursday, the U8 hockey teams travelled to Blue Coat School to finish their season off in style. The teams played with energy and enthusiasm throughout, supporting each other and challenging themselves with the skills we have been learning this term. There were lots of smiles and plenty of goals across the four pitches all finished off with singing and pizza on the bus. The children were a credit to the school and should be very proud of everything they have achieved in this first term of hockey.
