Colchester and District Cross country competition (Nov 2024)

31 children from across Key Stage 2 took part in the annual races, which were 1 Km for Year 3 and 4 and 1,600 M for Year 5 and 6. Each race had over one hundred children in from approximately 20 schools altogether! They all had a great time and ran as hard as they could. The majority of our pupils completed the course in the top half. A particularly good team result was achieved by our Year 3 girls.

 

 

 

 

Football Tournament October 2024

Our Year 5/6 football team got our calendar of sporting events for the year off to a fantastic start yesterday at the Colchester district tournament. They finished joint 2nd in their group of 8 teams, resulting in being asked to come back in 2 weeks time for the finals. Some great goals were scored, along with a mean defence, that contributed to an all round team performance that they can be proud of. I must also mention that their behaviour and attitude was also very good throughout the morning. Less of which could be said about the freezing cold weather!
