So sorry for the late notice, but Blackfield have cancelled our game against them. We will try to rearrange a game for next week. 

On Wednesday we took 69 runners to Priestlands for a Cross Country event.  The pupils were incredible. They were cheering for each other and even other schools, when they ran, they gave it their best and when they fell over they got straight back up again. We won the Years 3+4 competition with two members winning both the boys and the girls events. 

Coming back from the event, we had an hour delay due to traffic and we were stranded at Priestlands.  I would like to thank the parents who helped and stayed behind to support the children whilst we waited. 

A great day out with enthusiastic, football mad boys. We took two teams to the tournament and they played in separate tournaments. The Baracudas came 3rd out of 7 teams. I saw brilliantly Luka Modric threaded through passes, Dudek styles saves and Ian Wright finishes.

The Alligators finished top in their league and played in the finals league.  They were unfortunate to lose two of those games, but there is still more to come from this young talented team.

Both teams showed great support for their fellow players and were a joy to take out.

Thank you to the parents for their support and help in transporting the children. It was a great day out.

Just a reminder that The Maths Olympics are happening tomorrow. Children can come in non-uniform.  They will be raising money for Mathletics. This is aimed to be a fun, Maths based team game.

Tri Golf at Priestlands. We took two teams to the Priestlands Tri Gold tournament on Wednesday. At Brockenhurst we are building a great golfing team after qualifying in the Hampshire Games last year, and creating strong links with Brockenhurst Golf Club, who run a Golden Time club at the school.  The team showed a high level of organisation, technique and were high on the praise radar when it came to encouragement. Our Year 5+6 team, who have only just started playing golf, out on a great show, but unfortunately finished outside the top 3. Whereas our experienced years 3+4 team won their age group. Thank you to Mrs Sturgess for helping out with the teams.

We took a talented, enthusiastic tennis team to a team tennis tournament at Pennington on Wednesday. The children praised and encouraged each other throughout the tournament. After several games and plenty of volleys we finished second out of 8 teams. I was mostly impressed with the maturity and respect tour children showed throughout the tournament.
