Girls House Football
Last week was another sporty week at Broxbourne and it was excellent to see 26 of our Year 5 and 6 girls represent their houses as the final round of matches took place this Wednesday. Final point totals were: Yellow Foxes with 3 points, third were Green Hedgehogs with 5 points, second were Red Squirrels with 7 points and the winners on this occasion with 9 points were Blue Badgers. Well done to you all for showing up and enjoying the camaraderie of playing sport against each other and congratulations to Blue Badgers on this occasion.
Cross Country Competition at The Broxbourne School
Friday saw our Y3/4 and Y5/6 cross-country teams take to the mud at the District Cross-Country. Competition was tough and the school placed overall 4th from the 10 schools involved. Our Y5/6 boys team placed 2nd and individually we had some stand out performances from Cooper, who was 2nd in the Y5/6 race, Lewie. Who was 8th in the Y3/4 race and the first Y3 boy in the district and Alice, who was also 8th in the Y3/4 race and 2nd Y3 in the district. It was great to be able to share the event with spectators and thank you to all supporters, who cheered our intrepid runners home. Congratulations and chapeau Broxbourne to all who represented the school so well.
Year 5 & 6 Inter Primary Cup
Today our Year 5 and 6 football and netball teams opened this season’s fixture campaign. The attitude, camaraderie and sportsmanship seen throughout was really encouraging to see. How the game is played and how you conduct yourself is far more important than any result and our children were superb ambassadors for our school today. Our A Team netballers were runners up, narrowly being pipped 5-3 in the final. Not to be outdone, our A Team footballers finished 6th and our B Team also finished as runners-up, losing out to a deciding golden goal. Very well done to all who were selected to represent the school so well. Thank you also to Miss Hawthorne, Miss Pope, Mr Wilson, Mr Hancock and Mrs Davidson for providing our children with this opportunity. A great start to the sporting calendar and chapeau Broxbourne!!!
