Congratulations to the Hockey Team who came away with the Gold Medal in the HSSSP Compete Competition last Wednesday. This is a hotly contested competition, with teams from more than ten schools across the High Suffolk area including some of the biggest schools in the area. Fressingfield Primary School sent two teams to the event; one in the Compete competition and another at the Develop level.
The Fressingfield children really put on a show: the compete competition was played as a league and our boys and girls, including children in Years 4, 5 and 6 won their first six games and then drew their final game. Games were played in teams of four with the requirement that two boys and two girls are on the pitch at all times. We had a team of six and rolling subs, so each member played an equal part in the success, so well done to Sophia, Harriet, Lydia, Oscar, Tobie and Hector. A special mention must go to Tobie who was awarded a ‘Determination’ individual medal: one of these is awarded per team to the player that most epitomises one of the sporting values.
The Develop team also had a good competition, winning two of their games and drawing another, which left them third overall in their group. Ms Scott admired their passion and commitment as a group, so well done James, Archie, George, Jayden, Bella, Daisy and Ella. In this competition it was Daisy who picked up the individual award, this time for ‘Teamwork.’
Well done all!
