Sleeping Beauty at Neston

Added on by Andy Howe.

Last Tuesday, the children experienced a fantastic performance of 'Sleeping Beauty' delivered by M and M Theatrical Productions. They transformed our hall into a theatre giving our children a fantastic spectacle.

The hour and 10 minute production delighted our small audience and our children’s faces were a real treat as we revealed this special surprise. I think Mr Howe and Miss Patrick were also surprised as they 'enjoyed' a starring role as dancers. The request for them to come up on to the stage was a little unexpected and certainly unrehearsed!

More School Games action for Neston - this time netball!

Added on by Maple.

The Y5/6 netball squad took part in 5 Level 2 matches over two afternoons at Corsham Comp (which were officiated by two 6th formers who played for Neston when they were in Year 6!). Martha and Rosie took on the role of captain along with the decisions of who would play in which position. They and the squad (Zoe, Katherine, Kate, Ellen, Ben, Barney and Finn) got stronger and stronger as the tournament progressed. They worked on their passing and marking and won 3 games out of the 5. Special mention goes to our goal scorers Zoe and Ben for their composure and to Martha who was one of the 3 pupils out of all the schools taking part to be commended by Mrs Long (the SGO) for her defensive skills! 

Neston Girls Cricket team comes second in competition!

Added on by Maple.

Our girls team, ably managed by Captains Katherine and Kate, took part in a tournament on 3.10.16. We achieved the main aims of the event which were to have fun and to increase our cricketing skills and it was the icing on the cake to come second - only missing out on first place by 5 points (one out). We're looking forward to more competition in Terms 5 and 6!

A fantastic first event of our School Games calendar

Added on by Maple.

Well done to our Year 5/6 mixed-cricket team for competing in our first inter-school event for this year! It was wonderful to see some of our more seasoned cricketers building their team work and leadership skills by supporting and guiding those with less cricket experience. Our most valuable players were Lauren, who had two brilliant catches; Ellie, who got players out with both her bowling and her fielding and Ned, who ran players out. Our most improved player was Niamh, who put into practise what she's learned at school with some strong batting and accurate bowling. She gained in confidence so much throughout the tournament that she was asking to be wicket keeper by the last match and did a great job of it! Three cheers also for Captains Will and Taylon, Leo, Lenny, Isabel and Chloe who did Neston proud with their positive attitudes and hard work!
