  • Netball Update - Almond Hill vs St Nicholas

    Published 15/05/24

    Our netball team played very well against St Nicholas on Tuesday. The passing down the court really impressed our spectators, with some of the defensive players bringing the ball up to our goal third. Unfortunately, the goals just wouldn't go in for us so the game ended 6-2 to St Nicholas. Well done to the whole team for another consistent performance. Amelia, our captain, gave some inspiring team talks at each interval - well done. 

    Team: Isabella, Amelia (C), Lola, Daisy, Ava, Hetty and Kornelija.

  • Netball Update

    Published 10/05/24

    This team worked exceedingly hard to finish 0-0 against Ashtree in this home match. The progress of the whole team really showed during this match, with superb defending keeping Ashtree from scoring a single goal. We had plenty of attacks but could not seem to score. The result does not tell the story of the determination and teamwork shown throughout. Well done again to a team that is progressing beyond belief.

    Captain: Daisy

  • Athlete Visit

    Published 08/05/24

    Years 3 and 4 had the privilege of a visit from GB athlete Lesley Owusu. They completed an exciting fitness circuit (to raise sponsorship money for new sports equipment) and asked insightful questions during the assembly and discussion. We hope the children were inspired and motivated to try their best.

  • Almond Hill vs Aston – Quarter Finals!

    Published 01/05/24

    Both sides had some good chances at the start of the game until Harry scored the first goal for Almond Hill! A couple of minutes later, we were awarded a penalty which was scored by Harry followed shortly after by another Almond Hill goal from Teddy.  Aston had some good chances at goal and were successful in scoring just before half time.

    Aston came out strong after the break and scored another goal putting Almond Hill under pressure. Despite Almond Hill playing really good football, Aston were strong in attack. With just 7 minutes left, Aston capitalised on a mistake at the back and scored again. Almond Hill then had a big opportunity to score but sadly missed. Aston kept the pressure until they scored again – the score was 4-3 to Aston at this point and we were heartbroken…

    With 50 seconds to go, Harry scored again, giving him a hattrick and pushing the score to 4-4 taking the game to penalties! Almond Hill won the game on penalties, taking us to the semi-finals!
