Each week, during our Friday Achievement assembly, we celebrate our ‘Pupils of the Week’ from each year group. Pupils are recognised for this weekly award for a variety of reasons and are nominated by their class teacher. They may have excelled in a particular subject through the week; may have shown one, or more, of the school values in abundance, or they may have impressed their teacher, or other staff members with a huge amount of effort. Whatever they are nominated for, they are recognised in the whole school achievement assembly, receive a certificate to take home and get to wear one of our prestigious black and gold t-shirts. 
During the assembly, we also celebrate children who have 100% attendance for the week and have been in school every day on time. A lucky dip, of all children who are eligible takes place, and one pupil walks away with £5 to spend on whatever they want, Standards and presentation of a child’s book, chosen at random, are also reviewed and celebrated with the school and the child, whose book has been chosen, has the chance to win a dip out of the basket of goodies, as long as they have used their best handwriting every day, completed their feed forward marking and taken care in the presentation of their date and learning objective. We are extremely proud of all of the efforts of our pupils and the Friday Achievement assembly recognises this pride.

The excitement was high as Year 6 pupils took part in the first House Dodgeball Competition of the year, with Hulk House, Spider House, Bat House, and Super House all competing for the chance to be crowned champions.

From the very first whistle, the competition was packed with energy, skill and teamwork. Every house played exceptionally well, with players demonstrating impressive throwing, catching and dodging skills throughout the event. The matches were closely contested, and each team showed great determination as they fought hard for every point.

Spider House impressed with their speed and agility, making some fantastic dodges to stay in the game. Bat House worked brilliantly together, supporting one another and never giving up, even in the toughest situations. Super House displayed excellent communication and tactical play, making them a strong challenge for every team they faced. Meanwhile, Hulk House combined powerful throws, quick reactions and outstanding teamwork to remain among the frontrunners throughout the competition.

One of the most positive aspects of the tournament was the attitude shown by all of the pupils. Every player demonstrated remarkable determination and perseverance, continuing to give their best effort no matter the score. Teammates encouraged one another, celebrated success together and showed excellent sportsmanship towards their opponents.

As the competition progressed, the tension built towards the finals. The final matches were incredibly tough, with the remaining teams battling fiercely for the title. Spectators were treated to exciting catches, skilful dodges and dramatic last-player moments as every house pushed themselves to the limit.

After a thrilling and hard-fought final, Hulk House emerged victorious, securing the title of Year 6 House Dodgeball Champions. Their resilience, teamwork and consistent performances throughout the day helped them claim a well-deserved victory.

Congratulations to Hulk House on their success, and well done to Spider House, Bat House and Super House for their fantastic efforts. With such a brilliant start to the house sporting calendar, this first dodgeball event of the year has set a high standard for the competitions still to come. 🏆🏐💚
