SEND Multi Sports

Eight year 6 pupils participated in a basketball competition yesterday. The competition was held at Reddish Vale High School and the team showed great team-work and each player played a significant role in coming 2nd place out of 7 teams and reaching the finals event on the 8th of February.

Year 6 Basketball

Eight (four boys and four girls) year 6 pupils participated in the rugby finals competition. They qualified to the finals by coming 3rd in a previous rugby tournament. The same pupils attended the finals and had learnt a lot from previous rugby tournament competition, because all 8 pupils played fantastic and reached the final, after 6 games, (winning two, losing one and drawing three). Unfortunately St Josephs lost the final 2-0 in a tight match. 2nd place is a great achievement as St Josephs only had two players who had played rugby out of school time before.

Eight (five boys and three girls) year 6 pupils participated in the basketball finals competition. They qualified to the finals by coming 2nd in a previous basketball tournament four weeks ago. The same pupils attended the finals and played another fantastic tournament and reached the final, after topping the group stages (which meant St Josephs had a place straight into the semi finals), and then going on to win the semi finals. Unfortunately, St Josephs lost the final in a close match. Every player played magnificent and should be proud of their efforts of coming 2nd in the finals tournament.
