Congratulations must go to ALL the teachers, parents, volunteers & pupils for all the efforts made to make sport in our school the success it is. Also thanks to Mrs Debenham for kindly nominating our school.

We attended a very grand Sports Awards Ceremony on Sunday along with 3 Suffolk Olympian Competitors and many sports teams and organisations from around Suffolk. We were delighted to be awarded a perpetual trophy, an engraved trophy to keep, £100 and a framed certificate.

We were very impressed to see our photo already in the EADT Monday morning Sports Insert.
