Fri 15 Feb 2019We have had a very busy week with various sporting activities and some great successes.
On Monday our Years 3 & 4 Basketball Team played in the Richmond Knights Tournament at Twickenham Academy and came 2nd. Our Year 6 Basketball Team represented the school on Tuesday in their tournament and were once again crowned Champions winning the final game against St Mary's & St Peter's with a golden basket scored by Archdeacon.
