Cross Country medal, netball and swimming in class 3.

Jess received her 3rd place medal for the Autumn cross country races. A fantastic result from over 100 girls.

Netball
There are no photos from the night as it was so foggy so the team photo was taken in class the following day!
Amy, our netball captain, wrote the following reports about our 5 recently played matches.
Long Bennington:
 For our first match we drew 4-4 in a very exciting match. One boy for Long bennington was very good at scoring.
Ropsley:
For our second match we won 4-3. It was very close but we pulled through winning the match.
St. Mary's:
Our final match in the first round was against St. Mary's and was probably the toughest match of all with a very close score-but we still won it 5-4.When a sports ambassador girl asked Mrs Chadwick who the best player was , she said , " I could  not compare them because they worked so hard as a team ."

The second round of matches took place at Priory Ruskin under flood lights( and fog!) on 20th November. Amy wrote the following match reports:

Barrowby: 
This was a difficult match because it was foggy, I was surprised we could even see the ball! Sophie Elizabeth was good because she scored most of the goals.At the end we lost 5-3.
Denton:
This was a really hard game. We worked really hard but it wasn't easy to beat them. Their goal attack was amazing-he was their star person. In the end we lost 2-0 but we worked excruciatingly hard.Mrs Chadwick said Vincent was the wayne Rooney of netball because of his fantastic accurate throwing.

We now wait to be put into league based on our results where we will play our next  in the spring.

Swimming- Personal Survival Level 1 Testing
2 swimming groups undertook their personal survival level 1 test. Here they are completing various tasks:
                         swimming in 2 long sleeved tops and long trousers for 100m.

keeping afloat with a floatation aid for 5 mins.

minimal movement( but they still managed to chat1)

little "social " groups forming

Wendy's group completing their tasks.

Ready to enter the water without their head going under-hence the "hats"

 showing they had perfected the art 

various techniques worked-lean forward, legs and arms wide...

hats on so heads were kept above the water

all successful

next group

again- all successful

Tyler, Adam and Amelia in the deep end

jumping in with Debbie teaching them

Adam straight like a pencil-just as asked

                                                                   now Tyler
Super work from Debbie's group.
