Sports News
MYG Table Tennis
Yesterday our Table Tennis Team entered the MYG Tournament with another 35 schools at Medway Park. The standard of table tennis amazed our players - Morgan, Lily Rose, Felicity, Marcell, Toby and Kairo.
Every child played to their best ability playing 3 sets to each match. During the Tournament every child won at least two complete matches, unfortunately we lost more than we won, which caused some disappointment and frustration to a couple of team members. We must remember that sportsmanship is very important, without that and respect for others a team cannot build strength and the ‘spirit of Bredhurst’ is lost.
KS2 Netball Match
Last Friday 30.1.26 Our Netball Team went to South Borough Primary School for their first Netball Match in the Community League. Our team looked worried when they saw the opposition as they looked very tall and skilful. The match started and all the teams worries dropped as they played their own game of quick movement around the court. feeding the ball to our goal scorers. Unfortunately, the nets were a lot higher that the ones we have at school and proved a problem reaching them. The team persevered and after many shots they started to go in. the end result was South Borough 3 Bredhurst 5 - Brilliant result well done to the team - Mia, Millie, Morgan, Arabella, Erin, Kairo, Freddie, Marcell and Lennie.
Utilita Cup
Our UKS2 Football Team entered the Utilita Kids Cup along with 12 other teams across Medway.
The first match was against Bligh School and we won 3-0 which boosted their confidence of the team. The standard of football was very high keeping our team very focused in attacking and defending. Thomas pulled of some brilliant saves. We won a further three games and drew two, which put us through to the semi finals which we won and then the final against Loose. The whole team played very well and proved to be the winners of the tournament. Well done to Kairo, Marcell, Freddie, Felicity, Jude, Harper, Toby, Tate and Thomas. The Team will now go to Swindon in March for Reginal Finals.
UKS2 Football Match
Yesterday (22.1.26) Upper Key Stage 2 Football Team had their third league match against Allington Primary School. The weather was atrocious with the team getting soaked before kick off. The first goal was scored by Toby quickly followed by Allingotn scoring. The game proved quite tough with Allington defending well. Thomas was absolutly brilliant in goal only letting in two goals. The final result was 6-2 with Harper and Kairo scoring the other goals. Well done to our team:- Kairo, Freddie, Tate, Harper, Thomas, Jude, Felicity and Toby. Another win towards the league.
Year 5+6 Cross Country
Cross Country – This was the second race of the series for Years 5+6, held at Cliffe Woods Primary School.
The weather was atrocious making the terrain very slippery. The children ran 1.6km in very muddy conditions with intermittent rain. Connie Blackman was the only year 5 girl and was first to race. She ran a very determined race keeping up with the front runners and finishing a very respectable 3rd place.
Year 5 boys were next with 7 runners, the course was getting churned up and resulted in Freddie who was in the leading pack slipping injuring his thigh muscle which resulted in his withdrawal from the race. The rest of the boys carried on running with the final result being Toby 5th , Joel 19th , Tate 23rd , James 25th , Frankie 30th and Zach 40th. This was an amazing result from 56 runners. Next was our year 6 girls and the rain started once more, we had 4 girls entered resulting in Mia 12th , Lily Rose 14th , Alannah 34th and Samantha 47th They all ran really well and finished the race very muddy. Lastly, Year 6 boys, we had 5 boys entered, Kairo proved once again a formidable runner winning his race in 5.31secs. followed by the rest of our team Jamie 21st , Marcell 28th , Lennie 38th and Jack 40th. We are really proud of the whole team who showed such determination and stamina in finishing the race.
