The standard was incredibly high, and the girls showed exceptional levels of resilience all day to both finish fourth in the Cup. Congratulations to Sophia, who out of all the players, received Player of the Tournament! It was a fantastic experience to play in matches officiated by England Netball umpires, in a world class venue and to meet the Nottingham Forest Super League players for inspiration!

U14 GIRLS FOOTBALL TEAM Last Wednesday, the U14 Girls Football Team played Giles Academy from Boston in the ¼ finals. They came out 4 v 1 winners, with a hattrick from Leila Curry-Coates and an opening goal from Ellie Biriny! The girls generally dominated the first half, with multiple chances to double their lead, but lacked a little quality in the final third to go into half time more than 1 nil up. The 2nd half was again quite convincing, with excellent displays from Millie and Grace who dominated most of the play. It was really pleasing to see solid displays from Lilly and Lilia, two of our Y8s in the team. The girls will face either KGGS or KSHS (both grammar schools) in the semi finals!

COMIC RELIEF 2025 On Friday 21st March 2025 we are holding a fundraising event for the whole school to help raise money for Comic Relief. We are inviting students to wear their pyjamas and to take part in a Sponsored Fun Run. Each year group will have a one-hour session to take part in this exciting event on the school field! They can choose to complete the hour by running, walking, skipping, or even as a three-legged race! This is a House Competition! Students will compete to do as many laps of the field as possible to contribute to their House Totals. Students will be informed of their time slot, nearer to the date. All other lessons that day will take place as normal! Please note students who do not wish to wear Pyjamas on that day will be required to wear full school uniform. Students who wish to take part will need: PJs – Long sleeved pyjamas and onesies. (pyjama shorts and strappy tops are not acceptable) Football boots – please make sure you have your football boots to change into A layer underneath the PJs (e.g a t shirt, shorts) or bring a coat! Students who are not in PJs or football boots will be unable to take part in the fun run. As well as being a lot of fun and a great chance to create memories with your friends, we are encouraging students to ask friends, family and neighbours to sponsor them. Parents can donate using the following links for ParentPay and Just Giving www.justgiving.com/page/swra-1 https://app.parentpay.com/ParentPayShop/Foc/Default.aspx?shopid=18389 In addition to the Sponsored Fun Run, we are holding a Bake Sale, selling cookies and cupcakes for £1 at 11am in the hall. Both cash and card are accepted.
