London 2012 Leadership Academy Rock at the 2012 Rock-it-ball Festival!

On Wednesday 11th January, students from local schools Anton and Portway came down to Harrow way to take part in a rock-it-ball festival run by the London 2012 Leadership Academy. Students in the Academy are from years 7, 8 and 9. After both schools had arrived, Mrs Escritt ran some fun warm ups and relays before Miss Sturges explained the rules.

There were ten matches in which the four Portway teams and the Anton team were pitted against each other. Even though they were from the same school, there was a lot of rivalry between the Portway teams! Halfway through, an Anton competitor sustained an injury but showed courage to continue in the final match

Out of the five teams it was Portway Orange who came out on top with Portway Pink second, Portway Blue and Green as joint third. Anton didn’t win but they did collect the prize for showing Courage and Respect the most, two of the Olympic and Paralympic Values.

LEGO Club in the Library every Wednesday lunchtime for Years 7 & 8

So far we have had two very well attended sessions. At the first meeting the challenge was to build the tallest free-standing tower, with extra points for style. The winner of this challenge was Adam Baston. At the second meeting students made vehicles; the winner was Morgan White with his retro chariot design. Next on our list are … MONSTERS!!

At each meeting library books, on the chosen theme, are available for reference and inspiration and the LEGO Challenges will get progressively harder as the weeks pass. Places are available on a first come, first served basis and all Year 7s and 8s are welcome to come, build and join the fun!

Harrow Way 5-a-side football

Week 2 of the Harrow Way 5-a-side Premier League saw some fantastic matches, screaming goals and Brazilian skills from the very best players Harrow Way has to offer.

While Club de Football managed to maintain their 100% record with two convincing wins, Low FC were unable to hang on to second spot, dropping to 3rd after only earning 1 point from their 3-3 draw with lowly Team FC.

Instead, Galacticos now sit in second place with 9 points courtesy of a tremendous 2 – 0 win over their rivals Low FC. A 2-1 victory over the ambitiously named Top of the League boosted Galacticos point tally, leaving them just 3 point behind the league leaders.

It was not all doom and gloom for Top of the League as they benefitted from an automatic 3-0 win in their friendly match against the All-Star team Friendly A.

Team FC prop up the foot of the table on 4 points but it is only goal difference that separates them from 4th placed Top of the League. Click here to see the League Table. Continue reading Harrow Way 5-a-side football…
