13th July 2022A Rogers
🟡🟢SOUTH TYNESIDE TAG RUGBY LEAGUE FINALS 2022🟢🟡
 
Today our 18 Tag Rugby players competed at Temple Park in the South Tyneside Finals.
 
Our 2 teams competed with wonderful team spirit, composure and focus.
 
The drive, determination and sportsmanship from our teams was second-to-none as always, shaking hands with teams and thanking referees and organisers too. They are a credit to us. The children gave 100% to their team in each and every game.
 
Our A Team topped the table to take gold 🏉🥇🏆 winning all 7 games convincingly, while the B Team finished a creditable 5th with 1 win and 1 draw.
 
As this is the last event of this academic year, as well as the final event for our Year 6 pupils it made the victory all the sweeter.
 
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the pupils for their commitment and hard work. It’s been a privilege to coach and teach them, seeing them thrive and develop into great sportspeople. Congratulations and always remember that hard work does pay off. I’m so proud of you all and every child who represents us in the green and yellow of Stanhope. 😊👍👋👏

National Dodgeball Finals 2022

24th June 2022A Rogers
🟡🟢National Dodgeball Finals – Fenton Manor Sports Complex, Stoke🟢🟡
After proudly reaching the National Finals today we unfortunately failed to progress to the knockout stages of the competition.
The children were a credit to Stanhope, reaching the finals in itself was a tremendous achievement. They played well, but the run of luck just wasn’t with us today. We came up against some tremendous teams and had a wonderful experience nevertheless.
Their commitment to training for the event has been undoubted.
I am extremely proud to have worked with and coached the team this year, I know we will bounce back stronger and hopefully make it again in 2023.
It’s been a long day after a 5:30am start and as we head home, we all hold our heads high.
A BIG thank you also to Mrs Wardle for her support and Mrs Ali for driving us today. 🚐🚙😃
Congratulations once again team – get a good nights sleep 💤 (although from the pictures some of us have nodded off already) 🙂👍

South Tyneside Cross Country Finals 2021-22

25th March 2022A Rogers

Today 29 pupils from KS2 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the South Tyneside Cross Country Finals.

Firstly, I must say the commitment of the children, to give up the afternoon of their day off, highlighted their dedication once again. I was truly delighted to see them all performing to their very best and giving everything in the green and gold of Stanhope. Aided by the wonderful support from various families and friends as the sun beamed down on us.

Each child completed in their respective year group events, comprising of between 40 and 70 children from various schools in the borough.

All of our children, performed very well, working hard and demonstrating great determination right until the finishing line of their respective races.

Outstanding performers were:

Bobby (Y5) was push all the way, but his sprint finish burnt off the opposition. He is such a great talent in so many sports!

Rhianna (Y4) led from the front and was never headed throughout a brilliant race to gold.

Lucas (Y3) such a dominant display and winner by over 10 seconds. Such fabulous potential for the future!

Other Top 10 finishers included:
Ruby (Y5) 5th, Dakota (Y3) 8th, Lacey (Y4) 10th & Lee-Jay (Y3) 10th.

The Y4 Girls were also team winners of their age category which is fantastic for them as it was, for some of them, their first competition representing Stanhope.

We therefore finished as 4th overall team scoring 358 points.

I am so proud of all of you. Every mile counts…🎖😁
