Year 3 and 4 Girls Football Festival

We made our way to the newly established outdoor football pitch at OSA. With only three schools participating, we faced each one twice, and during our time off the pitch we engaged in  some training.As we played more matches, our confidence grew.

It was wonderful to  see so many girls taking part, and a huge thank you goes to the parents for their support, as well as to OSA for organsing these events.

Great job girls!

Rapid Fire Cricket Festival 

A group of children from Year 3 and 4 participated in a variant of cricket known as rapid fire traveling to Onslow for the event. Upon our arrival we recieved a briefing on the rules and the structure of the competition. The tournament was organised in a round robin format with each school competing against one another twice followed by playoffs to determine the final standings. Despite facing some formidable opponents, we persevered and ultimatley secured 4th place. 

Autumn Term

Speed Stacking 

Tuesday 10th December 

Even though HCFS had participated in the event before, it was a brand new experience for many of the children. During the event, they had the opportunity to practice the various cup formations needed. It was impressive to see how quickly the children grasped the formations. They had to stack the cups in two specific arrangements: 3-3-3 and 3-6-3. Each child aimed to achieve the fastest individual time, and congratulations to Louie and Ayesha for setting the best times! The event then moved on to a team relay, with separate races for boys and girls, followed by a mixed relay at the end. Great job to all the children!

KS2 Cross Country 

Wednesday 13th November 

HCFS took part in the annual Cross Country event held at De Havilland School. The course was set out around De Havilland school grounds . A huge congratulations to all children that took part as we finished 4th overall with some of our children winning second and third place respectivley within their individual races.

Futsal Festival

Friday 8th November 

We entered the newly constructed sports hall at Onslow St Audrey's to participate in a Futsal Festival. Futsal is a dynamic sport that shares numerous similarities with football. Six schools were present, and the matches were organized in a 4 v 4 format, with the girls competing in the first half and the boys taking over in the second half. The fast-paced nature of the game made it both intense and unyielding; however, all the children performed admirably and enjoyed themselves immensely.

Cross Country Qualified Event

Thursday 10th October 

Regrettably, the event was postponed to a week later due to bad weather.

However, the children who qualified from the District cross country event proceeded to Stanborough Lakes to compete against the top runners from Welwyn and Hatfield. The race around the lake was challenging but it was a great performance from our runners.

Year 5/6 Cross Country 

Tuesday 24th September 

We made our way to Onslow St Audreys for our cross-country event. Despite the challenging nature of the course, the children demonstrated remarkable determination.

As a result, several students from Year 5 and Year 6 qualified for the event at Stanborough Lakes. Well done!
