Goal Ball
On Friday 8th March some children from Key Stage 2 went to Boston Peter Paine Centre to play Goalball.
This is a unique Paralympic team sport for visually impaired players. However, anyone can play as everyone wears eye shades. Instead of using sight, you listen for the audible ball and feel for the tactile court.
we all had great fun!
On Friday 26th January, some of our Year 3/4 cohort competed in Sports Hall Athletics, an event at Boston College. Whilst at this event, our children competed in several different track and field events such as obstacle relays and running relays as well as the speed bounce and javelin. We were competing against 9 other schools in our afternoon group. The children were incredible all day with both their attitude and behaviour towards other schools and their ability in the events. This amazing attitude and level of athleticism all afternoon resulted in us winning the competition. This is an amazing achievement and all of the children that competed should be incredibly proud.
On Thursday 25th January, some of our girls from Year 6 competed in a football competition at Thomas Middlecott. Whilst we were at the event the children played three group games against Tower Road, Hawthorn Tree and Gosberton School. We won two and drew one of our group games which resulted in us topping the group and going through to the semi-finals. In these semi-finals we came up against Gosberton School again. It was a tight game but we managed to win the game 1-0. This sent us through to the final with Hawthorn Tree. Despite drawing in the group stage, and thanks to a hattrick in the final from one of our girls, we ran out 3-0 winners which resulted in us winning the competition which is an amazing achievement. The girls attitude and sporting ability was amazing throughout the tournament and the girls that competed should be incredibly proud.

They both played amazing in the semi-finals and despite the results, showed amazing determination.
