Basketball
Wed 23 Nov 2016Fairmeadows got off to a flier at the basketball tournament as they lit up Pingle with some dazzling play and ruthless finishing.
The team were impressive as they won all four matches conceding in only one game as they ran away with each result. Winning 12-0, 22-0, 8-6 and 12-0 the team were over the moon with their qualification for next weeks District Finals at Pingle.
Mr Reeves remarked: "This was one of the most dominant displays I have seen from any basketball team over the past ten years. At times they were unplayable."

Football Festival
Fri 30 Sep 2016The football season for the Under 11 boys began today and Fairmeadows managed to come 3rd in their group narrowly missing out on the next round.
An excellent display from the team in the first match saw multiple opportunities spurned in a 0-0 draw with Linton, and, when Jenson Street had a goal ruled out for a foul on the 'keeper you started to feel it wouldn't be Fairmeadows' day. In the next match against a superb Heathfields outfit, an unfortunate mix-up in defence gifted them a goal against the run of play. Unable to recover, this meant Fairmeadows had to win their final game against a talented and determined Woodville outfit.
The best chances went to Woodville early on with marvellous saves from Logan Murphy in goal keeping Fairmeadows in the hunt. However, the tide then turned as super work in midfield from captain, Noah Baker, allowed 'Meadows to push on and create chances of their own. A wonderful run and cross saw Joshua Glover squeeze the ball just wide before nother mazy run saw Noah's last minute effort saved by the goalkeepers legs. 0-0 was a fair score but meant there was to be no progress for the team who had worked hard, played well and shown far more than results would suggest.
A good effort from the team: James Allcote, Noah Baker, Jamie Harrison, Henry Goring, Josh Glover, Corey Durdey, Jenson Street, Rhys Griffiths, Lucius Leslie and Logan Murphy,

Group Winners
Fri 30 Sep 2016Congratulations to the Girl's Under 11 football team who romped to victory in the group stage of the South Derbyshire District Championship.
An astounding record of P4 W3 D1 L0 was all the more impressive for the 4 clean sheets maintained at the back.
A slow start, a 0-0 draw with St. Edwards was followed by a 1-0 victory over Woodville thanks to a goal by Holly Wright. In the third game a splendid run, taking on 4 players culminated with a smashing finish from Olivia before Freya Hingley buried an opportunity in the final match to defeat St. Edwards 0-1.
The girls have qualified as group winners for next weeks finals. What a performance!

All's Fair in Love and Draw!
Mon 18 Jul 2016Congratulations to Bronte and Newton who drew for first place in the third Team Championship!
All year children from our four teams have been earning team points and competing in intra-school events to win the trophy which went to the final week of the school year!
With Nightingale having won the previous two years, it is delightful to see new teams basking in the glory of their triumph. With as little as 250 points separating the four teams it was tighter than ever and the spoils were shared!
Another exciting and high achieving year at our school!
