CHARITY SWIMATHON: TAKE PART As you know, this year we have been suppting "Pchlight" and "Place2be" via several fundraising events and this summer, on the sunniest and warmest day of the year (because I've booked it with the local meteologist!) we are having a charity Swimathon. We would love to make this a big event and any ideas that you may have to help enrich the day would be greatly appreciated. Obviously we'll put aside several time slots f those parents who would like to hit the pool, but other fundraising ideas that could be centred around the pool courtyard area would be greatly appreciated. The bigger the event can be, the me money we will be able to generate f two fantastic and local charities. PAUSE FOR THOUGHT The date will be the 19th June and we'll have someone swimming in the pool from 6am right through to 6pm. If you have any ideas that you would like to put fward that will help, if indeed you would like to swim, then please contact Mr Smith at the school ( ) via at bjsmith@springgroveschool.co.uk 2

7 SPORT U9 Rounders V Lenden Match Repters - Mylie Wood and Emily Bg First Innings On Thursday, the U9 SG Team played against Lenden at home. Phoebe did the toss and unftunately lost. Lenden decided to field and the game began. We had some excellent batting from everyone and sced lots of rounders, although four people got out. We sced 7½ rounders in the first innings. Then it was time to field. I was the bowler and Elvie was the backstop. There was accurate bowling with a few no-balls. Jess and Emmy did some excellent catches and ended up getting five people out. Lenden got 4 rounders. In the second half, SG got 4 ½ runs and Lenden had 4 runs. Emily was the bowler and Elvie was backstop. Emily did some lovely bowling and Elvie was great at back stop. Lenden just couldn t seem to hit the ball so we bowled them all out. Emmy also did a massive hit and got a rounder because Lenden weren t awake at all. There was a very funny part when Abigail was running to second base and she grabbed the pole with her. Alice hit the ball quite far and went f it. I myself didn t really hit the ball but had to wait at first base. 3rd Section The final sce was 12 to DG and 9 to Lenden. Two of the star scers were Alice and Emmy. Emmy was the top scer with 4 rounders. The lady of the match was Emmy f her amazing scing. Well done SG. Thank you Mrs Langfd f coaching us and thank you Mrs Rawlins f a lovely match tea.
