Netball
Netball club will restart in September.
Netball is an exciting, fast and skillful game of fair contest. It is a game in which two teams of seven players each strive to keep or gain possession of the ball.
The team with the ball, through running, jumping, throwing and catching, attempts to move the ball into its goal circle from where a goal may be scored, while the opposing team uses defensive movements and strategies to prevent this and to gain possession. The team with the greater number of goals is the winner of the match.
Come along to netball club to learn how to play and to be part of a team. Will will play against each other and prepare for matches against other schools.

What a huge turnout! We have lots of girls attending netball each Tuesday. Each session has exciting, seeing the girls develop as strong and confident players. They have had the chance to work within their year groups, houses and mixed years. Each time, they have all been supportive of each other. I am looking forward to taking the teams to their district tournaments. More news to follow.
