The netball team produced their best performance of the season so far when they beat St Mary and St Benedict’s 10-4 tonight.  Much of the game was a closely fought contest, but our brilliant players kept their heads up, took their chances and worked incredibly well as a team.  This means that, having played four games so far (all of them away fixtures) we have won 3 and lost 1.

We thank our hosts for their hospitality and good sportsmanship tonight.

A big well done to Issy, Emma, Libby, Owen, Mia, Ethan, who was our captain for the match, and Aliscia, whose performance earned her the ‘player of the game’ accolade.

You have two very proud coaches!

On Wednesday, we took class photos from Nursery through to Year 6, which will be used in school and also on the school website. Next week, once we have finalised the printing arrangements, we will be making them available for parents to purchase from the school office. Watermarked copies of the photos are available to view below.

Further to the information on the school newsletter, a letter is coming home today about the school’s silent disco for children in Years 1-6, which is taking place next Friday, 27th November. The letter and details can be found here.

Kind regards,

I have arranged an end of term Ice Skating Trip for children in Years 5 & 6, which will take place on the afternoon of 10th December. The children have been issued with letters today, a copy of which can be downloaded here. Those children not wishing to skate will stay at school and have a movie afternoon.

Your child should come home with a parent questionnaire tonight. We would be most grateful if you could spend some time completing the questionnaire and return it to the school office using the envelope provided. An electronic copy of the questionnaire can be accessed here.

A huge well done to the netball team who played their first match of the season away at St Thomas More Primary School tonight. The whole team played brilliantly, and carved out an 8-3 victory. Following a bright start in the first quarter, the team were 2-0 up. St Thomas More really made us work hard in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, playing superbly to go 3-2 in front. In the final quarter, our fabulous players dug deep, scoring six times, to leave the score 8-3. I have to say, St Thomas More were excellent opponents and the game was a lot closer than the score line suggests.

Myself and Miss Quinn are incredibly proud of the whole team: Aliscia, Mia, Emma, Ella, Libby, Ethan and Owen. For several of them, it was their first ever competitive netball game. Emma was selected by the St Thomas More team as the player of the match. Woohoo!

Exciting times ahead!

Dean Smith, dad of our beloved student Jack Smith, and friends are currently cycling from London to Paris. On Day One they rode 85 miles – wow! They have 3 days left of their charity venture. Money raised is going to Lily Foundation, a charity that conducts research into mitochondrial disease. Well done boys, keep up the hard work!
