What a fantastic start to the school year we have had lots of sport going on inside and outside of school. So far this year we have started a football team for year 5 & 6 and have completed 3 matches in the Stourbridge league with 1 loss and 2 draws we will go into the second half of the season with a positive mentality and hopefully get some wins after the February half term.

We have also started a netball team this year there has been practices for the squad and from that a team has been selected. They have performed amazingly and are through to the semi finals in the spring so watch this space! Big thanks to Mrs Ryder, Miss Beddoes and Mrs Knight for volunteering their time.

School competitions

We have had competitions in school as well between the classes we held a Tag Rugby Tournament for years 5 & 6 the children loved it (sorry about the muddy PE shirts) there has been an internal competition for multi skills between the year 1 & 2 house teams Rubies were the overall winners, big thank you to the year 6 pupils who helped run the afternoon.

We are entering as many competitions as possible this year and so far year 2 have been to the multi skills competition at Windsor the A—team came in 5th position out of 9 teams. The year 5 & 6 went to the swimming gala and again out of 11 schools we achieved 5th place.

Coming up in the new year we have got a dodgeball competition which is new for this year and sport hall athletics in January and preparations are already taking place for the gymnastics competition in February.

We also have a Cricket Coach coming in after Christmas working with years 4 and 6 on a Wednesday afternoon and  we will definitely be entering the Cricket competition in the summer term.
