Warrington Wolves Rugby Festival - Oct 2024

Pupils from St Elphin’s had a fantastic day at the Year 3/4 Warrington Wolves Rugby Festival held at Victoria Park. Three teams of 9 from the school took part, showcasing outstanding teamwork and a positive attitude throughout the event. Their enthusiasm and sportsmanship shone as they worked together, supported one another, and demonstrated great skill on the field. All teams should be proud of their efforts in what was a fun and exciting day of rugby!

 

A big thanks goes out to the parent helpers (Sam, Alice and Rhey) who helped organise the teams and were amazing with the children throughout the day - it wouldn’t have been possible for the event to go ahead without you!

School Team Finishes 2nd in County Basketball Finals! 20th March 2025

Our school team made us all proud by finishing as runners-up in the county finals, demonstrating incredible skill, determination, and teamwork throughout the tournament.

The journey began with a strong group stage performance, where the team secured their place in the knockout rounds with two wins and a draw. One of the standout moments came in the opening game when Isla kept her nerve to sink a crucial free throw, ensuring a dramatic last-minute draw.

In the semi-final, the team stepped up their game against Childers Thornton Primary School, delivering a fantastic performance to claim a well-deserved victory. Marcus was outstanding, scoring key baskets that secured the win and a place in the final.

The final against St Oswald’s was always going to be a tough challenge, and despite a determined effort, the team fell short with a final score of 4-8. However, they gave it everything, showcasing great resilience and teamwork until the final whistle.

Finishing 2nd in the county is a huge achievement, and we couldn’t be prouder of the entire team. Congratulations to all the players, coaches, and supporters who helped make this an unforgettable tournament!
