Netball Match Report: Whitchurch vs St Andrew 

Whitchurch primary hosted St Andrews  for a fantastic afternoon of netball, played in great spirit and with plenty of enthusiasm from both teams. It was brilliant to see the players demonstrating excellent teamwork, determination and positivity throughout the matches.

Whitchurch had a strong set of games, securing 3 wins and 0 loss. The team showed great movement around the court, as well fantastic finishing in around the shooting D.

Whitchurch 2 also showed great resilience, finishing with 1 win and 1 loss and 1 draw Despite tough opposition, the players kept encouraging each other and never stopped working hard, which was fantastic to see.

Across all matches, the standard of play was excellent and the sportsmanship shown by both schools was something to be proud of. Players supported teammates, respected opponents and represented their schools brilliantly.

A big thank you to all the parents and supporters who came along to cheer the teams on — your encouragement from the sidelines made a huge difference and created a great atmosphere for the players.

Well done to everyone involved for a wonderful afternoon of school sport! 

We even enjoyed biscuits and squash after!!

Finally the sun came out and what an afternoon we had!  The annual Pancake Races were really fun with Purple House emerging as the overall winners.  It was lovely to see the Whitchurch spirit shining through as our House Captains helped their younger team members.  

And of course Rufus was on hand to watch it all!

A huge hello to Rufus, our new well-being dog!  Rufus belongs to Miss Croot and is fully trained, vaccinated and also super cute!  

When in school he will be monitored at all times and never left alone with the children. He will be there to bring support, joy and cuddles to those who want and need them.  

A big thank you to our lovely kitchen staff who brought the love this Valentine's Day!
