Football Success
Girls Can Do It at Southover – We were delighted to have the girls football team representing Brighton and Hove Albion at the Premier League Primary Stars National Finals at Brentford FC. They had a great day and represented the school and club magnificently. Their story of reaching the finals was made into a short film with accompanying articles on the Premier League website. Check it out! https://www.premierleague.com/news/4033864
We will remember the day and the qualification success for a long, long time. Lexi managed to impress on the day and was the tournament leading goal scorer!
Athletics
Nearly sixty children took part in the District Sports event at Lewes Leisure Centre. They ran hard, threw far and jumped high. So much so that they came away as the District champions! This is the first time in many years we have been champions and the children from Y3 to Y6 showed their sporting prowess. We have a large shield to add to the trophy cabinet and the children took home a horde of medals. The relay teams did very well and both long distance and sprinters came home with golds. Roll on the Olympics!
Cricket
We sent two teams of girls to the Lewes area competition of the Sussex tournament. We had girls from Y4 to Y6 and they all played well. We qualified for the Sussex finals but unfortunately the date clashed with Sports Day. The players representing the school were: Ivy, Lara, Edie, Vera, Alisa, Sofija, Lexi, Iris, Emma, Hilda, Bea, Tilia, Annie,
A Y5 & Y6 mixed team played a match on our field against LOGS. We had some fine bowling and batting and the sun shone! The players had been to cricket club over the term and narrowly lost in the end by six runs.
The team was: Alfie, Ossie, Finley, Edie, Emma, Vera, Bertie, Jack
