On the 14th January, eight people from the year 6 class were selected to take part in a Tchouk ball tournament on the Secondary Site. Bradley, Ryan, Travis, Bianca, Maya, Courtney and Rebekka played really well as a team. In our rounds we competed mainly against Blackshaw Primary School, this time we lost by just one point. To play Tchouk ball, which was invented in Switzerland in the 1960’s, you need a small ball and an angled bouncy net called a “trampet”. You throw the ball at the net and get a point if it hits the floor before an opponent catches it. After all the rounds, we came in 4th place, which Mrs McDonald was very pleased with.
Meanwhile, year 1 and 2 were involved in a gymnastics competition on the 18th January. The children competed against three other schools and tried really, really hard.
The students that took part were Joshua, Shauna, Dillon, Stephanie and Callum.
There were three parts to the competition. Body Management, Floor and Vault.
Our very own Callum Stevens, pictured above, came first place in Body Management and floor. He had 45 minutes to learn a routine and then perform it for the judges.
Everyone who took part got a certificate. Mrs McDonald commented “I am very impressed with Callum for learning the routine so quickly—he is a natural. We are very proud.”
Also in sports, BSCA’s under 11 football team played against other teams in Bolton in the Premier League tournament, held at the Bolton Arena. The competition, organised, by “Football in the Community”, was very enjoyable and the whole team played wonderfully together.
