Netball with year 5 and year 6 pupils. Both teams played fantastic and we came 2nd and 4th out of 8 teams. All pupils showed great teamwork and passion during the tournament.
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.
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.
Nine (5 girls and 3 boys) year 5 pupils participated in a netball competition. St Josephs came 4th out of 7. The team showed great team-work and determination. All pupils said they would like to play netball more and will look into joining the schools netball club and netball clubs out of school.
