• KS2 Dodgeball Festival at Wilsthorpe 28.1.19

  Tue 29 Jan 2019 S Roper

  On Monday the 28^th January, Miss Edwards and Mr Roper were lucky enough to take 11 children to a Dodge Ball Festival held at Wilsthorpe. This was a fantastic opportunity for the children to have a taster of the sport and learn and develop new skills, including; throwing - overarm, underarm and chest passes. Catching – eyes on the ball, hands ready to catch and pulling the ball towards the their chest. And, of course, Dodging! The children (and teachers) had a great time at this event and their behaviour was exemplary and they did a fantastic job representing Longmoor. However, Leah and Gabby seemed to have the most fun by throwing the balls at Mr Roper!

  A big well done to all our Dodge Ball Superstars – Beila, Kaydon, Tayler, Karla, Dylan, Christian, Gabby, Leah, Frazer, Maria and Emmanuela!

  

• Y5/6 Futsal at Wilsthorpe 17.1.19

  Fri 18 Jan 2019 I.Bunhejee

  Mr Bunhejee and Miss Mills took the Y5/6 Futsal team to Wilsthorpe for an Erewash School Sports Partnership competition on Thursday 17^th January. Logan, Dylan, Archie, Ethan, Tommy, Harry and Theo played really well and represented Longmoor fantastically in matches against other local Primary Schools.

  Our first match was against Brooklands who we beat 1:0 with a goal from Theo. Our second match was against Dovedale A who we beat 1:0 with a goal by Harry. So far so good. Two wins with three games left. In our second game we conceded a late goal to lose 2:1 to Harrington. Dylan had earlier scored an equaliser from the penalty spot. This meant we had to win all our remaining games. In our fourth game we beat Dovedale B 3:0 with a brace from Harry and one from Theo. This meant it went to the last game against Chaucer who were unbeaten. In a tough, tight game we lost to a strong Chaucer 2:0. Meaning we finished in 3^rd place with 9pts.

  Well done to all the boys who played some fabulous Futsal and scored some impressive goals. Thank you to Mrs Wenham, Mrs Tuck and all the other parents and carers who came along to support the team.
