Dodgeball Stars Shine on the National Stage!

Our school community is beaming with pride after our talented dodgeball team made it all the way to the National Dodgeball Tournament in Stoke-on-Trent, and secured an incredible 4th place out of 20 top teams from across the country!

While we've reached the finals for the past three years, this is the first time our pupils have broken into the top five, a huge milestone for our school. With determination, teamwork, and plenty of school spirit, our players gave it their all in the thrilling finals play-off.

The quarterfinals were especially intense, with our team holding strong until the final 30 seconds, when the loss of a key player gave the opposing side the edge to take the win and progress to the finals. That narrow defeat lingered into the semi-finals, and although our players fought hard, the performance didn’t fully reflect the incredible potential they’d shown throughout the tournament.

Headteacher Ms Khinich said, “We are incredibly proud of our dodgeball team. Their perseverance, teamwork and passion have truly paid off. The 4th place finish is a well-deserved reward for all their effort! They’ve made our whole school community proud.”

This achievement speaks volumes about the hard work and dedication of both our pupils and Sports Coach. Their resilience, passion, and sportsmanship have made our school community incredibly proud.
