Beech House School

Beech House School

Three children from Year 5 and Year 6, Charlotte Mills, Archie Mayer and Antonio Nangle represented Beech House School in a boccia and kurling event.

The event was just for fun and had many other participants from local schools who experienced boccia and kurling for the first time.

Each school showed excellent team work and sportsmanship and it was a wonderful event to be involved with.

The 3 students also walked away proudly with a participant medal each and will receive these on Speech Night.

Eight children from Year 5 and Year 6 were asked to represent Beech House School in a 5-a-side Basketball tournament against other local primary schools.

The team was as follows; Aaron Waddington, Zak Gorton-Rigg, Emaan Malek, Alexander Zebedee-Howard Emily Higginson, Pheobe Stephens, Charotte Mills, and Zidan Illahi.

The children first played St Vincent’s’, who were clearly ‘in it to win it’.

Unfortunately, the team lost 2-17, with Aaron Waddington scoring a fantastic 2 pointer from outside the key.

Our second and final game was against Smithy Bridge, where Beech House seemed a lot more organised within their positions and began to listen to their team mates and pass the ball around more to create space.

Still, the team were defeated 2-13, but the effort had improved from all our players and Alexander’s 2 pointer was a shot even the other team applauded.

The House Point totals for the week are:

Jupiter 26, Mercury 22, Saturn 17 and Neptune 11

In the Lower Prep Roman McInnes, Laya Karunanandarajah, Evie Wallett and Ady Mohammed received their Red Rainbow Award for 50 House Points.
