Year 5 & 6 Football League Finals

The Year 5/6 A and B team played in the league final last night at Bradley Barton School.

The B Team played Rydon. We were the stronger side for much of the game, applying constant pressure and peppering the Rydon goal, only for the keeper to pull off save after save after save. At half time the score was 2-2 but we were confident that we could come away with the win. We continued to put pressure on the Rydon defence in the second half coming away with a 5-2 win.

The A Team League played Hazeldown for the third time this season. In the previous two meetings, Hazeldown had come away with the win so we were determined not to let history repeat itself. We took a 3-0 lead within the first four minutes with some excellent decisive passing in front of goal. Hazeldown kept their heads up and fought back into the game, but a combination of excellent defending from us and clinical decision making in attack saw us run out 7-2 winners in a very impressive performance.

Miss Wright is really proud of all of the boys. It was a hot afternoon but everyone put in a 100% effort and deserved to come away with the trophies.

Year 2 Striking and Fielding Festival

On Tuesday 29^th April, all the Year 2 went to Teign School for a striking and fielding festival. The event was organised and run by the Teign School sports leaders and they did a fantastic job of setting up, explaining and encouraging the children to participate in a range of activities involving striking and fielding.

All the children enjoyed the activities and had a great time playing the games, working together and practising new PE skills.

Children’s quotes:

“I loved the batting game because I scored well and hit the hoops.” Vinnie

“I really enjoyed the bowling activity. I liked trying to knock the cones off the bench.” Millie

“The striking activity was great because I got it in the hoop at the back!” Evelyn

“I liked the activity when we batted because I loved hitting it hard.” Ellie

“The cone game was really fun.” Seb
