Year 6 Winter Sports Teams proudly represents Sherwood
Wednesday 7th August marked the day for the annual Northern Bays Winter Sports Day hosted by Kristin School. This event sees Year 6 teams from 10 schools battle it out in football, basketball, netball and hockey in an attempt to get the top spot.

A special mention to the Sherwood Saints basketball team for placing 4th and just narrowly missing out on bronze. Our football squad had a tough draw and didn't make it to the play-offs. However, they played some outstanding football and should be very proud of themselves.
A big thank you to our parent coaches for helping on the day. It is greatly appreciated! Our teams are lucky to have such enthusiastic and dedicated coaches. Thank you again!
