Autumn 2 Sporting Update
Ice Skating Trip To Ally Pally
A few lucky children were able to go ice-skating at Ally Pally this week. Some children who had never tried it before loved it, and would like to go again.
Taking part were: Darius, Leona, Lio, Morgan, Emily and Ivan
Indoor Roller Racing back at St Marys!
After a year when we couldn’t host, the indoor Roller Racing was back with a bang at Rectory Gardens! This is a fantastic event where children have to race students from other schools on static race bikes in the hall. The bikes are linked up to the large screen where the computer is monitoring how fast they are travelling. You then get a visual image of the race taking place between the schools in these super intense short races! We had some fantastic results with Alexander, Godsend and Godwin all winning their races, lots of silvers for the others and our year 4’s (Emilia – Silver and Frank – Silver) doing brilliantly racing against year 6’s! It was a super fun experience for all! Alexander ended up as the winner of the day – well done!
Cycling Team: Godsend, Godwin, Alexander P, Roman, Frank, Amina, Emilia, Kimberly, Shawna, Riley
Mixed Year 3-4 Football Cup
In another mixed tournament (4 boys, 3 girls) we showed glimpses of our talent. We lost the opening two games by a single goal but showed improvement by then beating Weston Park 5-0 and beating Trinity and drawing with OLM. We then had a tough match against a strong Campsbourne, lost narrowly to Coleridge (4-3) and then beat North Haringey 6-1. We showed that we could compete with the best but couldn’t quite get over the line in several close games. The children showed fantastic teamwork and resilience throughout and did themselves and the school proud!
Y3-4 Mixed Team: Irene, Cataleya, Ireyne, Emilia, Alex M, Emmanuel, Isaiah, Frank P
Mixed day at the Hi-5 Netball Tournament for our Girls
On Monday 17th November, we sent our Girls Netball team to the Hi-5 comp at Highgate School. While you are allowed to enter boys, I decided we’d only send girls as our Netball Club is girls only. We lost our first two games, firstly to a strong St Michael’s team and then very narrowly to Rhodes Avenue – a game we really should have won. We then beat South Haringey 5-0 with Alayah scoring 3, had a win against Trinity and then needed to beat Tetherdown to qualify for the quarter final. In a super close 1-0 loss, we weren’t quite at our best and went out. Nevertheless, I’m confident we’ll continue to improve and can show how good we are this summer!
Netball Team: Alayah, Deena, Mabel, Amina, Danae, Lya, Robyn, Kacia
Boccia Competition
Ms Mallitte, Ms Wynter and Ms Toms took our team along to New River Sports Centre. Boccia is a little like boules and petanque. The children performed really well against some very stiff competition from other schools with a special mention to Kenny and Morgan. It was a great day!
Team: Darius, Emily, Kenny, Morgan, Ivan, Leona and Lio
