Netball Match - Y6 versus Parents

The year six pupils took on the parents on Thursday afternoon in a thrilling game of netball. The parents won the game, but their height advantage may have had something to do with that!

The year six match was followed by a match between staff and parents. I am very pleased to report that the staff held their own and won the game 7-3.

Rounders Team versus Staff

On Thursday afternoon, the rounders team took on the staff in what was to be a hard-fought match. The children played really well, fielding brilliantly and hitting a few good rounders. However, the staff fought back hard and thanks to a lot of outs won the day 12 1/2 - 2. It was a great game and everyone had lots of fun. Here are some of the highlights. Thanks to William for taking the photos.

Leavers' Assembly

This morning the most emotional and tear-jerking day of the year saw us say 'goodbye' to our 12 Year 6 leavers during this morning's special assembly.
A range of poems were read, the children shared their memories and Mr Mansell produced yet another classic poem to really sum it all up!
This cohort really have been the most fantastic children who have delighted us with their efforts and achievements in every area of school life - they will be sorely missed and fondly remembered.

More Cross Country Success

On Wednesday 20th July, three children represented the school in the area cross-country finals at Mellis. Having qualified in the top 25 previously at Stonham Aspal, the children knew that this was going to be a real challenge.
However, the tremendous efforts saw our two girls both finish in the top ten and our male representative striding home to finish first. This is a quite remarkable achievement as it means that Earl Soham have now provided either the boy or girl champion for the last three years!
All three children should be so very proud of their efforts - whop is going to step up to the plate next year?

What a Show!

Having started the road to this production way back in September when the children started putting their ideas for the script together, three tremendous performances were held earlier this week.
Jeremiah '2' The Misty Mountains was the sequel to our play 'Jeremiah in the Dark Woods' performed two years ago. After a term of hectic writing and editing, a script was produced which them evolved into something rather special.All of the children took part in what could be described as a bizarre journey through fantasy land with lots of singing, dancing, acting and props with attitude!
