• Y3/4 Mini Tennis Champions!

  Thu 28 Mar 2019

  On Wednesday night, four of our children went along to Ecclesbourne School to play in the AVSSP Y3/4 Mini Tennis Borough Finals as one of the top 4 teams in Amber Valley, having won the Heanor Cluster competition.

   

  Each of them would play 3 matches against opponents from Heage Primary, Pottery Primary and Riddings Junior - last year's champions - to decide who would be 2018/19 Borough Champions.

   

  All four of our children played some fantastic tennis on the night, winning 9 of the 12 games they played, having improved greatly on their cluster competition performances and setting a really high standard of tennis.

   

  In the end, we ran out Borough Champions – the first time our school has achieved this feat – and an amazing result which will see our Mini Tennis team attending the 2019 Derbyshire Schools County Finals!

   

  Terrific Tennis skills boys and girls and thanks as always to parents for your support.

  

• Comic Relief - Final Total!

  Tue 19 Mar 2019

  We raised £800! What an amazing total! Huge thanks to our brilliant children and community for their support of this worthwhile charity through our school. Comic Relief helps fund good causes in this country and abroad - there's more information about the work they do here <-- Click! In total, Comic Relief managed to raise nearly £64 million.

   

  Our children had a great non-uniform day, running their own stalls which included cake sales, games, toy sales, guess the weight of the cake, and more. Children planned and resourced their stalls themselves - with help from the great people at home!

   

  The picture below shows the event in full swing - and some children still had a few cakes left to sell to parents at the end of the school day!

   

  Thanks again!
