Congratulations to our fabulous Hockey Team that played in the Y5/6 Quicksticks Hockey Tournament at Comberton Village College today. The team played 6 matches in total - losing 1, but drawing 5. Given the team is recently established and that they were competing against much larger schools, we feel this is a brilliant achievement. We came 11th out of 16 schools.

Thank you to Miss Smith for the additional coaching sessions and to Mr Ashford, who stepped in at the last minute to escort the children with me to the event.

For a detailed breakdown of results, please look at 'Sports Fixtures and Results' under the 'Children' tab on the website.
