On Friday 26th February Mrs Jepson and her Sport Ambassadors went to New York Stadium to collect St Alban’s Platinum Award. We are one of two schools in the country to achieve this prestigious award.
A huge well-done to Mrs Jepson and all of the children that participate and represent our school during festivals and competitions.
Our Platinum Award is now proudly on show next to the office.
We are one of the first schools to ever achieve this new fourth level of the award and we could not be prouder.
Mrs Jepson is instrumental in organising sports in and out of school. Thank you Mrs Jepson for your dedication and commitment.
Yesterday, Y4 ran in a cross country competition and showed their speed. Every member of the team came in the top ten and went through to the next round! Well done.
This weekend Megan competed at the Metro Swimming Competition, A and B Grade. She raced in the 100m butterfly, 100m & 200m breaststroke, 100m and 200m freestyle and 50m backstroke. She got all new personal bests in these races and showed amazing stamina and determination. Megan’s parents are very proud of her superb performance as are we.
Congratulations to the Year 3 boys team and the Year 5 girls team who competed in the final. A great day was had. A big thank you to Mrs Jepson and all of the parents who helped on the day.
Mr Woodhouse did a fantastic job with the rugby team in the South Yorkshire Finals. They came 3rd. Well done to Oliver, Bryn, Will, Jenson, Edward, Abigail, Hannah, Lexi-Mae and Megan.
On Tuesday KS2 had their annual sports day. Luckily, the rain stayed away and the event was a huge success.
The whole school dressed in their house colours and the competition was tough.
Many parents approached staff and commented on how they prefer the new way that Mrs Jepson has organised Sports Day. It gave an opportunity for the children to show off their sports skills and they liked the fact that the children were always active.
On Tuesday Mrs Jepson was awarded a trophy for The Best Primary School PE and Activity. At the award ceremony Ruby (Y3), Ruma, Lexi-Mae, Isabelle, Ava and Abigail (Y4) performed a superb gymnastic routine that stole the show.
Well done girls and thank you Mrs Jepson for all of your hard work. Mrs Jepson organizes all of our sports competitions. Spending most of her play and lunch times training the children for the events. On behalf of all of staff, parents and children I’d like to say a very special thank you.
Congratulations to the year 4 rugby team. After qualifying through to the Rotherham Schools Final they have come 2nd overall and now go through to the South Yorkshire Games on the 5th July.
We entered two Year 6 teams into this event. The children were well prepared for the event and the competition was strong.
Unfortunately, we lost our final match with Flanderwell scoring 340 and St Alban’s 317. The children had a fantastic time- well done!
