Federation Boccia
A group of year 1/2 children took part in the yearly federation Boccia event at Wood End Park Academy. During the event the children took part in a wide range of activities which had been designed and tailored to match all needs.
Children displayed amazing resilience through out and had the opportunity to demonstrate a wide range of fundamental skills they had been learning in PE. The children had an amazing day and left Wood End park with huge smiles on their faces and a shiny medal. Well done to everyone and thank you Wood End Park Academy for hosting.
National Football Tournament
A group of girls in year 5/6 travelled to Bishop Gate school to participate in the Berkshire Schools Football Tournament. During the tournament the girls came against some really tough schools who had a different number of academy players. Despite this the team pulled together and starting to display amazing team work something we strive for at Western House Academy. Throughout the day the girls really developed and learnt so much from playing against real tough opponents. Overall the girls finished 3rd. I am delighted for the girls and I personally can't wait to see them develop further this year.
SSSN Indoor Athletics
This half term a large group of children years 5/6 took part in the Indoor Athletics competition at Herschel Grammar school. Throughout the day the children competed two field events and two track events. In every event the children would compete against other schools to earn points. The points would then be added together to give Western House an overall score. Overall the children managed to accumilate 222 points , this meant they managed to secure 4th place. This is an amazing result especially when a lot of the team had never taken part in an Athletics event before. The children displayed amazing teamwork and supported each other throughout the event. Well done to all children and a big thank you to SSSN and Herschel Grammar for running the event.

Despite coming against really tough opponents the children came together and made it all the way to the semi finals. After coming against the overall winners of the tournament in the semi finals and narrowly missing out on a finals opportunity the children finished joint 3rd which in itself is an amazing achievement. The children had an amazing day and really displayed the school value of TEAMWORK!
