Over this term some of our children have been writing match
reports on the sports they have been involved with, it’s a great opportunity to
get them thinking about how the matches were played and practices their writing
skills in a way that really engages them. We hope to share these with you on a
more regular basis using this blog in the spring term, for now, here’s a few
highlights from the Autumn Term…
Match Report – Football – 17/09/14
It was a fantastic start for Abbotswood who got the ball
moving well on a tight pitch. The game started rapidly as both sides had a few
chances at goal. Unfortunately, against the run of play Fair Oak drew first
blood on the counter attack. Catching our defence off guard. 1-0 Fair Oak.
However Abbotswood were playing very well but disaster struck again as the opponents
scored just before half time putting us 2-0 down at the break.
The second half was a similar story with Abbotswood
conceding 2 more goals from crosses due to the physical opponents. We kept persevering
till the end with fantastic play from Tommy in midfield who hit the post and
was linking up well with Logan and Josh in midfield. We finally got our reward
with 2 well finished goals from Josh. The final score was Abbotswood 2 – Fair
Oak 4.
Even though we lost this time, it was a great match and we
will come back stronger because we are Abbotswood!

New Forest School Games Table Tennis Championships – 10/10/14
On Friday 10th October, Mr Perry and Mr Farley
took 8 boys and 4 girls from years 5 and 6 to the New Forest Schools Table
Tennis Championships held at Testwood School.
I really enjoyed playing table tennis and regularly beat my
Dad, Mum and sister so I was quite excited about the competition.
The girls team played against 3 schools and we ended up with
a bronze medal. Unfortunately we didn’t get to play the winning school
otherwise I’m sure we would have won and ended up with gold.
The boys team also did extremely well in coming first and
winning gold.
I very much hope that I’m lucky enough to go next year and
strongly encourage other year 5 and 6’s to come along to table tennis club
because it’s epic!
