• After School Cycling Club

  It was fun in the sun this week as 9 pupils ranging from year 2 all the way to year 10 accessed cycling club after school on Thursday. 

   

  A reminder the club will run every Thursday after school until Easter and may extend into summer half term 1 TBC. All pupils welcome from primary and secondary. 3.30 pick up at school. 

  

• Inter House Football

  Wed 19 Mar 2025

  The weather warmed up just in time for a sun soaked inter house football day this week.  It was a fantastic atmosphere with all pupils taking part across years 7-11 and in addition some year 6s stepped up to play with KS3.  Our values of confidence, ambition, resilience, emotional literacy, effective communication & tolerance were all displayed consistently and it was fantastic to see the teamwork and sense of pride towards their houses shown by all pupils. 

   

  Pegasus took the honours in both the KS3 and KS4 competitions but Phoenix still lead the way in the overall inter-house sports rankings. 

  

• Halo Leisure Cycle Track

  Fri 28 Feb 2025

  A small group of our cycling well-being pupils were fortunate enough to be treated to an unexpected test ride on one of Halo Leisure's Ice Bikes,  a recumbent bike designed to allow people with a disability or someone who is recovering from injury to exercise their leg and glute muscles with less strain. 

   

  A big thank you to the team at Halo Leisure Cycle Track for allowing our pupils to try it. 

   

  

• Bumps and Burns First Aid Training

  Wed 26 Feb 2025

  Today we welcomed Nick from Bumps and Burns First Aid Training, a company that offer first aid, fire safety and other health and safety training.  He has kindly volunteered his time to help the ASDAN Sport & Fitness group work towards one of their modules by completing a basic first aid qualification. Nick, who is also a firefighter and a former secondary school teacher was really impressed with the engagement and knowledge shown by the pupils, meaning he was able to cover more than initially planned. A big thank you to Nick for his time today passing on his expertise to enable our pupils to feel more comfortable with what to do in a medical emergency and how they might respond to and treat some basic sports injuries. 

  

• Well done to Incredibles

  Fri 14 Feb 2025

  Well done to Incredibles this week finishing their gymnastics unit with an introduction to vaulting. It was fantastic to see the progress made by pupils and their desire to show ambition and confidence to push themselves and the resilience to keep trying over and over again until they made it. In a previous lesson all pupils achieved their bronze floor award and most pupils attempted a number of more complex silver award shapes. Well done. 

  

• Inter House Dodgeball

  Sun 02 Feb 2025

  Pupils have been busy competing in inter house dodgeball this week with Phoenix taking the honours in Lower Key Stage 2, Key Stage 3 and Key stage 4 and Griffin winning the upper key stage 2 competition. Perhaps more importantly though, the games were played in a fantastic atmosphere where pupils displayed sportsmanship and a real camaraderie for their team.  Next half term we will have similar competitions in football, as well as inter house competitions in table tennis and sports hall athletics before the end of term. 

   

  

• ASDAN Sports & Fitness

  Sun 02 Feb 2025

  Our Key Stage 4 ASDAN Sport & Fitness group have been busy either side of Christmas working on their individual fitness plans at Halo Gym, testing their fitness each week and measuring any improvements made.  Once they have evaluated their programmes they move onto Sports Coaching in the coming weeks where they will be planning and running sessions for our younger pupils.

   

  

• The Brookfield School V Whitecross High School 12th November 2024

  Wed 13 Nov 2024

  This week we travelled the short distance to Whitecross to play 2 7 a side fixtures. It was fantastic to see the development from last years fixtures both in terms of confidence and increase in skill and tactical understanding. Our Blue team managed to win 3-0 and the red team lost by the same ascot but more importantly pupils showed great support of each other and behaved excellently. We look forward to the next one. Well done to all pupils who represented the school. Thanks to parents and carers for collecting and supporting and for Whitecross for hosting us. Mr Reed would like to thanks Mr Rowland, Jonny James and Zoe Pritchard for staffing the fixture, without which we wouldn't be able to offer the opportunity.
