A Champion in our midst!

One of our Year 6 pupils, who moved to Hemsworth High School in September, has been developing her kick boxing skills for less than one year and she has already proven to be the best. Not only is she English Champion but she is now also the British Champion for her age and weight. She is totally dedicated to the sport and works hard training and practising her moves. She recently demonstrated her skills during a key stage 2 assembly. What is so inspiring about Britney’s success is the modest way that she tells us about her achievements. In a short interview with Mr Reed she explained, “This is something that I really enjoy and I have set my goal on becoming champion of the world. I hope to be participating in Cadiz, Spain in the Autumn and ultimately in Las Vegas!”

Royalty in school : Fermin Day

We just had to show you this fabulous ‘Dress As You Please’ costume. As part our fundraising for Fermin, our adopted child from El Salvador, Lewis came to school as the Queen of Hearts – he really caused a stir and everyone thought he looked fantastic.

Gabanski Trophy

The photo of James is in recognition of his outstanding effort in sport over the past year. His attitude is an example to others and his commitment and enthusiasm are first class. The trophy is called the Gabanski Trophy after an ex-teacher (Miss Gabanski) who supported Brierley School for many years in the participation of quality PE activities.
