Our Upper Key Stage Two Boys’ Football Team completed their final league fixtures this week and after a tense evening of play, victory over a talented St. Matthew’s team confirmed our position as league winners for this season. This represents a fantastic achievement for the boys and we couldn’t be prouder of them. The team now qualifies for the Champions’ League event later in the year. We would also like to offer our commiserations to the players from St. Matthew’s who came very close to pipping us at the post. It would have been nice for both teams to have gone through but it was Hebburn Lakes who inched home in the end. Well done to all of the players from schools across the borough who have represented their schools this season and special thanks also to Mr Todd for his support with our team.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with the Year Five and Six Girls’ Football Team this year. We played our remaining league matches at Hebburn Comprehensive School on Friday last week and our final league position was joint-10th out of 15 schools. This represents a fantastic achievement for the girls and we couldn’t be prouder of them. We are now holding an Upper Key Stage Two Girls’ Football Club to build upon the success and enthusiasm we have for football in school and we hope as many girls as possible will attend as the year goes on. Well done to this year’s team and the future looks very bright indeed!
We had fun out on the MUGA this afternoon in our first Girls’ Football Club session. The girls were extremely enthusiastic and showed clear progress within the passing and shooting skills we worked on. See you next time everyone!
