Our Year 5/6 boys’ football team played an away match against Croft Academy. The game was closely contested throughout; however, the boys were beaten 3–0. Our team found it challenging to adapt to the small, compact astroturf pitch, which played extremely quickly. Despite this, the boys showed great determination and teamwork.

A Year 5/6 girls and boys athletics team went to Streetly Academy to take part in a Sports Hall Athletics event. Everyone tried their hardest, performed really well and above all, enjoyed the event. They competed against 4 other schools.

This afternoon the Year 5/6 girls football team played away against Millfield. Despite missing 2 key outfield players and our usual goalkeeper, the girls managed to win 1 - 0. We were lucky with the goal, as it was an own goal that settled the difference although we were probably the stronger team. Evie did an excellent job standing in as goalkeeper and Evelyn had a great game in defence.

Tuesday 18th November the boys Year 5/6 football team played in a tournament at Bescott Stadium. They played 4 games, beating Christchurch 4-0 and Holy Trinity 2-1, and drew against Short Heath 2-2, and County Bridge 0-0. Unfortunately they didn't get through to the final but did beat Mayfield convincingly in a friendly while the final was being played.

On Thursday 13th November the Year 5/6 girls football team played against Castlefort and won 7-0. The girls played confidently and with great composure, passing the ball around from the back and playing for each other. They were well organised so a big shout out to our new PE coach, Mr Wheelwright! Well done Amelia who scored 5 goals before coming off.

Year 6 Badgeholders proudly represented our school at the Remembrance Wreath Laying Ceremony at Barr Beacon War Memorial. The event was led by the Mercian and Staffordshire Volunteer Regimental Associations and supported by the Barr Beacon Trust. The children had a memorable experience, learning about the importance of remembrance and the significance of honouring our fallen soldiers.
