Year 7 Rounders Team

On Tuesday 1st July we took the Year 7 Rounders team over to Selwood Academy for the Annual Year 7 Mendip Rounders Tournament. A newly formed group of pupils played some great rounders in the heat of the day. They improved massively as the afternoon progressed. Whilst in batting as we started hitting the balls we were able to score more Rounders and in field we established our roles on pitch. In the first round against Selwood they out batted us scoring a whopping 8 rounders to our 2 but it was good effort and we were finding our feet. Player of the match went to Aimee Bryant. Our second game was against the overall winners of the tournament the Blue School. We improved hugely in this game and some great hitting by several of our players enabled us to score more rounders but still not quite enough to win. Player of the match went to Betty who showed some really consistent bowling. In our final game, we were drawing with 1 minute to go against Hugh Sexeys but unfortunately they managed to hit a long ball and score an extra rounder leaving the result at 5 Rounders to Hugh Sexeys and 4 to Oakfield. Player of the match went to Ella Ecob. A really great effort by all and can’t wait to see them all return to play in Year 8. A massive well done to all involved: Lacey Pitman, Leah Brickell, Ella Ecob, Francesca Jones, Betty Bell-Fraser, Ruby Maudsley, Aimee Bryant, Rowan Packman and Hazel Dent

The Poetry Slam final this year was a wonderful event - thank you to the many parents and pupils who came along to support. We were treated to five fantastic performances - everyone did brilliantly and should be very proud of themselves. In a very tight contest, the judges declared Theo Ravenscroft our winner, and Anya McCarthy and Emmeya Micharet Ayres runners-up. Elody Jarvis and Coralie Holden-Shack also made it through to the final, which is a fabulous achievement. Well done to all our competitors, and thank you to our judges Mrs Thomas, Mr Bowker, Rosie Milkins and Sophia Dowson. Thank you also to the Year 5 English team for working so hard with their classes to produce such top quality poems!

Rounders News

ROUNDERS ROUNDUP On what felt like one of the hottest days this year we ventured to Cheddar to play in the Mendip Year 8 Rounders Tournament. With lots of shade and drink breaks in between we managed to play some great Rounders in the heat of the day. In particular, Annabel Brickley-Mundy did a great job bowling very consistently and amazing teamwork between both herself and Minty Mitchard at backstop stopped the other teams scoring lots of Rounders. There was great hitting by our girls which enabled them to score well in Batting but not quite enough to win. Our closest competition was with Selwood losing by half a rounder but a great game to watch. A massive well done to our players of the match who were named as Cleo Thomson in the first match against Fairlands for some great catching at 2nd post, Lily Sherborne in the second match against Selwood for some great fielding skills and Leah Brickell for some great fielding in our final match against Hugh Sexeys. Please congratulate all the player involved - well done! Minty Mitchard, Cleo Thomson, Annabel Brickley-Mundy, Leah Brickell, Aimee Bryant, Lacey Pitman, Imogen Speddings, Anne Coelho, Lily Sherborne, Sophie Coles.
