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…🎖😁

On Wednesday 2nd March the Stanhope Primary Boccia Team attended a competition at Temple Park Sports complex. We were competing against 20 teams from across South Tyneside.

Stanhope played some pretty tough games against some great players. In some cases the final score came down to the final throw! Nail-biting stuff!

In the end, despite reaching the Semi-finals we were placed fourth overall. We are immensely proud of the team and all of their hard work practicing after school – well done Stanhope.
