We started in our pool games with a 2-1 win against Villiers Primary School. Next, we had a closely fought loss against D’Eyncourt, losing 3-2, finishing with a 5-3 loss against Bhylls Acre Primary School (who would eventually come runners up).

This meant that we would be playing for places 9th – 12th in the City. We had to play against Loxdale first and won a very hard fought match  5-4. This then meant we were playing for 9th and 10th place

Our final match was against Northwood Park, who had also came third in their pool. Northwood park quickly went ahead 3-1, but two excellent tries by Kacper in year 6, leveled the match at 3-3. This was how the match finished, so there was a ‘golden try’ scenario, where the next try would win. Northwood Park restarted and despite initially fumbling the ball due to a good tackle by Martyna, they managed to run through and win the match with the golden try.

An excellent performance by all the children involved, and an improvement on last years place which demonstrates the progress made! Well done to all involved!
