Kickboxing
A huge well done to all girls who successfully passed their latest kickboxing grading last week. Top effort girls!
Badminton
A fantastic achievement by Diya in Year 10 at the recent U15 Hertfordshire Junior Badminton Tournament. She won bronze in the singles, gold in the mixed doubles and silver in the women’s doubles. Very impressive.
Netball
Well done to both the 8B and 9B teams in their league matches vs Townsend. The Year 8 side won 7-0 and the Year 9’s won 9-4. Players of the match were identified as Anna and Josie.
Another good league match for the 9A team against a strong Sandringham side. The girls are improving and learning each match. Player of the match was Scarlett, but also a special shout out to Heidi G for her nonstop running as Centre.
An improved performance by our U15B V STAGS, but an unfortunate loss 4 v 20. Well done to all that participated in that.
Rugby
Well done to all boys from Year 7-10 who played in the first round of rugby fixtures after half term against Dame Alice Owen’s. Some excellent performances from all year groups.
This was then followed up with a really successful morning of rugby from all year groups against SJL last Saturday. The boys played superbly, with great running rugby and some ferocious defence, especially from the Year 9/10 combined team and the Year 7s. Well done to all involved. In Year 7, all are improving each game. In Year 10 from both games, Thomas R, Max F and Harry O’B were recognised for their work rate and defensive work
Football
An outstanding performance from our Year 9 boys in the National Cup, with a 3-1 win against Parmiters. Excellent energy in the first half with some superb football and then a brave, resolute second half. We look forward to our 5th round fixture, which is down to the last 64 schools in the country.
Related to this, congratulations to Juan in Year 9 for making the U14 county football squad for this season. Well done on an impressive achievement.
Well done to our sixth form boys football team for their 2-0 win against St Edmund’s College in the County League. Special mention to Patrick B for his 2 goals and also Ben W, Jack D and Matthew J for their strong defensive performances in the second half, keeping a clean sheet in the process.
Finally, there were some brilliant games of football for both the 7B and 8A girls teams vs STAGS last night! The Year 8’s won 5-1 and the Year 7’s lost 4-5. Players of the match were Martha, with some great saves, and Heather for some brave defending! Thank you to Emily, Ali and Sophie for giving up your time to help!
