Before half term, 10 pupils chosen from the football team were picked to play in a match against another school! These pupils were picked because of their dedication to attending football practice regularly, therefore they were rewarded for their commitment. 

 

We did some training and stretches before starting the match. For the first half of the match, we played Astley Park School vs the other school (Brookfield School). Then, for the second half, we mixed up the teams and the children from each school played alongside each other. They were all so encouraging of each other and we were so proud of our Astley Park pupils for their sportsmanship, teamwork and acceptance of others. 

 

At the end, we did some penalties! Every child got the chance to take at least two penalties. We then did a team photo. These amazing secondary pupils made us so proud and we really hope to have another football match again soon!
