CPSL Football League - Heathlands 0 v Kelvedon 2

Kelvedon Vs Heathlands

On Thursday 26th January, Kelvedon played Heathlands. We got there by travelling on the school mini bus; Mr Faithfull and Mr Walsh came with us on the journey to the match. Despite the freezing cold weather, we managed to get through the whole warm-up.

As the game started, we found it hard to control the ball as the ground was very hard which made the ball bounce a lot. 10 minutes into the game Toby and Kieran came up with a great link of play when Toby played a ball across the box to Kieran for a tap in.

At half time we made a few substitutions - Amy came on for Toby and Luke T came on for Ethan. In the second half, when Toby got subbed back on, Toby set Kieran, and Kieran accurately scored in the top right corner. The final result was 2-0 and at the end of the game we all shook hands.

This win continues our 100% winning record in the league.

Year 5 and 6 Netball match

Match report by Evie and Evie-Rose

North 1 v Kelvedon 15

On the 23rd of January Years 5 and 6 went to their first netball match at North Primary. We all had a very enjoyable time.

At 2.55 pm all the children in the netball match went to Mrs Short’s class room. Then they had to go to the hall so Mrs Short and Mrs Colgrave could count all 8 of the children - everyone was there so we started heading to the bus. After all of the children made sure that they had everything they needed, Mrs Bull made sure everyone had seatbelts on, then she started to drive.

In the bus we put some music on and that got the children very excited. Mrs Bull was very silly and took the wrong turn so we had to turn around at McDonalds, that got everyone very excited but then we headed out of the car park of McDonalds. When the children got off the bus, they followed Mrs Short and Mrs Colgrave to the school playground of North primary. They looked like they were great at Netball - they were very tall.

Everyone put their bibs on and stood in the right places and waited for the whistle to blow. When 4 minutes had past no one had scored and we had to change our positions. Then after 6 minutes we had scored lots of hoops and North Primary had scored one. Everyone played really well and we ended up winning our first match 15 - 1. At the end we all said hip hip hooray for North Primary and they did the same. We all shook hands with them.

As a treat for winning our first ever match Mrs Short and Mrs Colgrave got all of us Mc Flurries.

Sportshall Indoor Athletic Event 18/01/17

A group of Year 6 children took part in an indoor athletics event at Essex University today.  They competed in many different events ranging from short distance running to long distance relays, triple jumping, speed bouncing and long jumping.

As always the support they gave each other was brilliant and I'm extremely pleased to say that finishing third puts Kelvedon St Mary's through into the next round of competition in a fortnights time.

Many thanks to all who helped today, we were joined by Mr Faithfull and Mr Walsh. Extremely grateful to Mr Barnes who rescued us with last minute transport.
