1st Place Win for Team A at the Handball competition!

30/6/2016

 
Summer term is in full swing, which left very little time for the amazing handball team to practice!

BUT... Both Team A and B made me immensely proud as they worked as a team to play excellent matches in the handball competition today at St.Pauls Way Secondary School.  Each team member displayed good skill and encouraged their other team members. For example, when Team B were a few goals behind Bygrove, Safwaan shouted '' Be the best you can be'' to help motivate the team! Well done Safwaan!

After a round robin of matches Team A ( photo below) battled through and were crowned winners of the day! They won 3-1 in the finals against the talented team from Bygrove! A particular mention to Shuhel who was a star goalie! I would also like to mention Tahmina and Safwaan, the confidence that radiated out of you today was wonderful, you are both extremely talented handball. I am so proud of each and every one of you, the way you all came together as a team was inspiring and even Hasina couldn't believe how well you played together!

​A big well done to you all!

Wind and rain but what a great game!

29/6/2016

 
 Today Shay and I took 16 young talented cricketers to their first competition! Although the weather was dismal both A and B team did extremely well and placed 2nd in the group stages! It was so close and they worked so hard! One of our games we scored a high 268! Special mention to Jumayna who focused really well and to Shaheda for her excellent catch! 

You were all amazing and I am so proud of you all. 

BMX Brilliance at the Tower Hamlets Cycling Festival!

27/6/2016

 
Still inspired from our visit from champion BMX rider Mike Mullen, 10 students from year 5 and 6 had a fantastic time today at the Lee Valley Velo Park centered in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park!

​We had the chance to explore the velopark and then had a go on the BMX bikes! We had such  a great afternoon!

Semi-Finals triumph for Team VPS at the Year 5/6 Tennis Competition!

22/6/2016

 
Today 8 students from Year 6 competed in the Tower Hamlets Mini Orange 5/6 Tennis Competition at Bethnal Green Gardens! As you know summer term can be busy, last week I was away with Year 5 and there have been other exciting events happening, so we only managed to squeeze in ONE practice session!! However, due to the hard work and determination of both teams we powered through our group stage matches and Team 2 battled  all the way to the Semi-Finals! (after winning their group fixture!!!) against the eventual winners St.Mattias! An amazing day full of talent and skill - every single team member won at least 2-3 of their matches! Special mention to Kaniz and Jawad, you both stepped out of your comfort zones today and this had positive effect on your performance! Another mention to Kaniz and Deiondre who won 15-3 in their doubles match! WOW - that is such an achievement! I am really proud of you all because you had great sportsmanship and came away with a positive attitude towards the day! A day to remember for sure! A BIG Thank you to Lee Murray from THYSF for giving the children this opportunity today and also for his amazing work in coaching the children too.

Wimbledon arrives early at Bethnal Green Gardens!

9/6/2016

 
Today some children from Year 3 and 4 took part in a Tennis Competition at Bethnal Green Gardens where they met other students from different schools in the borough. They performed extremely well and I was so proud of the amazing skills they showed! All 12 of the children won a game at some point in the competition! Some won every single match! For some Year 3 students, this was their very first competition and they were incredible! Congratulations! We are very proud of you all!
