A BIG well done to all the children who have taken part in sports events during this half term.
The football season has kickstarted and we have had some great success already! Our U11 boys have taken part in a number of tournaments and fixtures – winning the School Games Central League Tournament; reaching the final in the ESFA Football Tournament and winning their first fixture in the group stage of the County Plate! We have also had our U11 girls take part in the ESFA Tournament and our KS2 girls and Year 3/4 Boys taking part in the School Games Central League Tournament, with the girls finishing second place and the boys also winning their tournament! Sadly, our U11 girls had their County Plate fixtures postponed due to bad weather, so we await for a new date for them to get back out onto the pitch.
U10s/U9s boys (Mondays), U11 boys (Tuesdays) and KS2 girls (Thursdays) football clubs will be resuming after half term with more tournaments/fixtures to come too.
More sporting action…
Well done to our KS2 children who took part in the School Games Multi-Skills Target Event at Mary Webb Secondary. Also, to the year 5/6 girls who went to the ‘This Girl Can’ event at Lilleshall, where only selected schools were invited to attend. Last but not least, we had our year 5/6 hockey team who took part in the School Games Quicksticks Hockey at Meole Brace Secondary.
All children showed the spirit of Mereside throughout and we are incredibly proud of their efforts.
