On Tuesday 18th April, our year 5/6 tag-rugby team travelled to Yarnbury Rugby club for a tournament against a range of other local schools. The boys and girls involved performed superbly and after 2 wins and 2 draws, won their group. This means that they have qualified for the finals event at the May of this half-term where they will play the winners of the other heats from all across Leeds.

This Girl Can

Our Year 5 girls had an amazing day out at Leeds Beckett University as part of their 'This Girl Can' campaign. The girls had the opportunity to participate in a range of teambuilding and sporting activities as well as learn all about nutrition and how to look after your body. It was a great chance to raise confidence amongst the girls and hopefully inspire them to do whatever they set their minds to- both in and out of sport.
