Y8 Bulletin 28.02.25

FRIDAY MATHS PUZZLE Our learning focus for tutor time on Fridays this term is mathematics, with the maths department setting some thought provoking brain teasers each week for pupils to grapple with. Many maths puzzles enhance logical reasoning. When playing maths puzzles, children need to follow a set of specific rules or steps, to come up with the correct answer. This process helps children to organise their thoughts. Please have a go at this week’s problem, talk to your child about how they approached it and what the solutions were. We hope you enjoy these at home as much as the students have enjoyed them with their form!

Y7/8 Netball vs Orleans Park

Lost

Y8 Netball Tournament A&B - LEH

4th place

Our Year 7 and Year 8 Netball teams both had matches against Orleans Park School on Tuesday. This was a tough first match for our Year 7s as they enter the Cup League. Coming straight back from half term and with no training prior to dust off the cob webs, it took the team until the 3rd quarter to fully gel and put in a massive defensive effort. They showed strong team work, reflective ability and adaptability between positions. POM - Lily K-J. Our Year 8 Team also showed great teamwork and resilience but were defeated on this occasion. Captain Daisy G was very proud of the team and Bella F was awarded player of the match. Today our Year 8 Netball A & B Teams gave a fantastic effort in a tournament against LEH. While our A team got knocked out in the pool stages, the B team went through to the semi finals but were knocked out by hosts LEH who went on to win the torunament. Our B team finished in 4th place

overall.

Great efforts this week from all our players and some fantastic netball played!
