We started off well the ball was going back and forth in each end but nobody had scored yet but our hopes were still up all of us were happy and excited. The other team were playing well we knew they were a strong team, Jasmine and Georgia worked well and travelled with the ball up to the other end and tried getting past the other team’s defenders but sadly couldn’t and lost the ball this happened twice. Isla Mary saved some great balls by the other team, but as quick as a flash the other team got past the defenders (Lola Annabel and Hanna) and scored this was sad but we were determined. In last few minutes we tried our very best but the game was over and we lost but it was a great game.

Winchester Games
Some of us were chosen to go to the Winchester Games, where we participated in a variety of sports. We began by doing a running race. Next, we did long jump to see who could jump the furthest, followed by javelin.
After that we got to play the bongo drums and learnt how to play a song. Then we went onto the activity field, where we ate our lunch and had a go on a tight rope. A rodeo bull and a surf board simulator.
Soon after we played dodgeball, where we were up against different teams. The final event was golf.
Overall, we really enjoyed the event and discovered new sports and experiences!
Thank you, Mrs Blackley, for taking us.
