Prep
Rugby Festival at Merchant Taylor's School, Crosby
Year 5 rugby team took part in a Festival at Merchant Taylor's School. Just a festival so no overall winner but lots of rugby played. The team played very well, scored plenty of tries and held our own against all other AJIS Schools and the team improved in tackling as the afternoon progressed.
Year 3 Football & Netball against King's Chester
Unfortunately, the football teams lost against strong opposition but, highlight of the week, was the convincing victory for the girls in the netball. In their first ever game, they won 5 - 1 and can't wait for their next game.
Year 6 Football and Netball against Bolton School
A successful trip for the footballers with a 3 - 1 victory for the A team, a 10 - 1 victory for the B team and a 4 - 4 draw for the C team. Unfortunately, the netballers did not fare so well losing both of their games to strong opposition.
Seniors
