On Wednesday Hamsterley played to games in a tag rugby league, with Hamsterley playing two games, narrowly losing both games by a point in each. This is third week of the 4-week event. Things will certainly become more interesting in the coming week, with only one school coming out on top and will win the league.

This week the whole school received a martial arts demonstration in which they got to partner up and try some simple moves on each other.  Then the ones that had chosen too got to have a martial arts lesson from the two sensei’s. They had loads of fun!

Thank you to parents, pupils, staff, governors and everyone who contributed to today’s Coffee Morning.

We had homemade chocolate cake, lemon drizzle, mixed cupcakes, Victoria sponge cake, chocolate brownies, fresh cream cake, chocolate muffins, biscuits and many many more.

Children enjoyed playing guess the weight of the cake, and guess how many sweets in the jar.

The weight of the cake was 367g – Freya was the closest, she guessed 400g.

There was 107 sweets in the jar – Luke was the closest, he guessed 105

We raised £79.84 for Macmillan, thank you all again!
