Sport Reports from 2024 and 2025

Year 3 & 4 Football – Tournament Winners!

On Wednesday 25th September 2024, a team of footballers from years 3 & 4 played some sensational football to win their tournament at Holmes Chapel Comprehensive. They won all their group games, playing some brilliant free-flowing football. In the final, they went one-down early on, but showed resilience and determination to eventually cruise to a 3-1. Their teamwork, sportsmanship and behaviour were impeccable.

A big well done to… Ruby, Lucas, Max, Oliver, Gus, Stanley, Felix & Charlotte.

Cross Country event on Wednesday 11th September. 

A super afternoon despite the rain! We hosted Brereton, Lower Peover, Hermitage and Chelford schools. The distances were set by Sports England and this meant that Year 3 and 4 children ran four times around the field and Year 5 and 6 did six laps. The determination of all the children across all the schools was pleasing to see as some of the children really struggled but everyone completed their race. The supporters did a perfect job of encouraging them to keep going. 
Goostrey showed strength and sportsmanship and certainly made their mark at this event. I was an extremely proud teacher.
Our first-place winners of their age group races were Eleanor, Oliver, Ruby, Seth and Lucy. We had 31 children take part and each child got a placing in the race and these points were added together to get an overall score. I am so pleased to announce that Goostrey was placed first! 
This shows team effort and determination. The children not running encouraged their peers from the side line which was uplifting indeed for all. 
Thanks to all for an enjoyable afternoon.

    Supporting the personal development of targeted young people through youth engagement and leadership
    Advocating and engaging key stakeholders on the value of the School Games to support local provision and improve the experiences for your young people and their families
