Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Hugh Sexey were drawn against Clevedon School AWAY for the first round of the ESFA Cup Match. We arrived at Clevedon with the boys wearing a brand new very smart kit (see photo below).
Hugh Sexey's started the match very brightly and hit the post in the first few minutes. Suddenly Clevedon then came back and scored two goals out of nowhere. George Nuttycombe then scored a well taken goal for Hugh Sexey's; we kept the pressure on to score an equaliser, but just simply couldn't find the net. Clevedon won the game 2-1.
Special mention to Harvey Pearn for a great debut in the Nationals, playing as centre back. All the boys were fabulous and played some really smart football. Well done lads, keep up the good work in training and keep enjoying your school football.
Squad - Aidan Scoulding, Harvey Pearn, Ethan Floyd, Ben Crook, Tom Bean, Jacob Aberdeen, Nathan Radford, Ronnie Newton, Henry Flanagan, Ewan Duckett, Amar Kolattu, George Nuttycombe, Oscar Boorman, Sam Tucker, Will Creaser
It was the first of the three races that make up this cross country league for Years 7 and 8.
Amongst the strong performances from all our runners, we had a couple of podium finishes to celebrate. Henry, on his debut, finished first in the Year 8 Boys race and Hannah finished second in the Year 8 Girls race.
Our Year 8s had the advantaged that all of the Year 8 runners from the host team of Millfield were away in Cardiff and so the challenge will be greater next week on the hilly course.
The boys were due to play this final, against Minehead Middle School, last term, but due to the bad weather it was postponed. We managed to agree to the final match being played on Wednesday, 13th September.
Unfortunately the weather was poor again- wet and windy. It was decided that the game should be played indoors instead.
