Golf festival at Sturminster Marshall

Some year 4 children spent a fantastic, although bitterly cold, afternoon at Sturminster Marshall golf course for a golfing experience. What a superb opportunity to try a new sport.

Year 3 & 4 Netball festival

On Wednesday 6th March, the year 3 and 4 netball club were invited to the Blandford school to participate in a netball festival, with the other schools from the Blandford cluster. Everyone had a super day, developing their skills and then participating in a couple of games.

CHAMPIONS - Indoor athletics

Over recent weeks, a group of selected children from year 5 and 6, have been attending the Blandford Schools indoor athletics training sessions, held at the Blandford School. The following children were selected to represent the Blandford area at the North Dorset indoor athletics meet, which took place earlier this week. Making up the majority of the team, they particpated in a variety of different events and won the competition. They now go forward to the county competition. Fantastic news. Well done.

GIRL'S FOOTBALL CLUB

Last Friday saw BSM's first girl's football club. Well done to the 22 girls in KS2 who ventured out in the cold to join in. What a great start.

GIRLS FOOTBALL FESTIVAL

Last week,  a group of girls from years 4, 5 and 6 were invited to a girls football festival at the Blandford school, which had been organised by Dorset FA in conjunction with Blandford FC. It was a cold evening, but 11 students made up the large majority of girls from the cluster. In fact, it was more like a dedicated BSM training session! The girls passed, tackled, shot and headed the ball with great enthusiasm and did both themselves and the school proud. Well done to all who attended.

If anyone, girls or boys, are interested in taking up football outside of school, then please speak to Mrs Thomas or Mr Lavis. It's a great way to keep fit, make new friends and be part of a team.
