Sport
After a a a fairly wet first half of term we we enjoyed some fantastic cricket matches during June and with parents back on site we had some lovely and very memorable afternoons Parents came in with picnics the the sun shone and the the school started to feel a a a little more like it did in years gone by Our new electronic scoreboard was commissioned and and set up and and it was lovely to see this Top Year gift from the leavers of 2019 up and running The U12s enjoyed a a successful match against Lucton and the the U11s played their last matches against Hereford Cathedral Junior School Unfortunately the Top Year’s final Abberley matches against touring Orwell Park had to to be cancelled after some torrential rain but in in fin the the final week they enjoyed a a a a a traditional Abberley afternoon and evening of patrol cricket matches! Cuckoos took victory overall but it was wonderful to see the 100s and Top Year all playing together for a a a final time GLOBAL
