		<description><![CDATA[Cumnor House lost the toss and we put them in to bat. Cumnor made 217 runs for the loss of 6 wickets. Cumnor batted quite well, but we also helped them along by giving away twice as many extras as they did when they bowled.  Our best bowler was Zach who picked up 2 wickets in his two overs.  Will G also bowled nicely, but otherwise we were quite errrant and expensive. We made 157 and lost 12 wickets in the process.  Our lack of match training was evident as most of our dismissals were down to run outs due [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Copthorne opened the first innings batting and although we made some excellent shots Cumnor&#8217;s very strong fielding prevented us from scoring many full rounders. Micki hit a great no ball and with Tori&#8217;s no ball it gave us an additional half rounder. However it was not enough as we ended with three and a half rounders. Although our fielding was not as strong as it has been we managed to get three of their players out. Unfortunately Cumnor were more accurate with their batting and by the end of the first innings they were 2½ rounders up on Copthorne. During [...]]]></description>

Amber captained the side today and got the team off to a good start by winning the toss and choosing to field first. All of the U9&#8242;s were nervous to begin with but as the innings went on they got tighter with their fielding, and there was some great work from Amber as backstop, Yelena as bowler and Ami on second post keeping the scoreline low and only allowing Cumnor to score from few opportunities.

We ended the first innings with 7½.  Liliana scoring 2 whole rounders and Karina and Alys got one and most others playing safe and getting to 2nd post. We then went to field and after waiting for Cumnor to arrive we practiced are fielding and catching high balls, but they had two very good hitters who every time it was their turn to bat they got a [...]]]></description>

With the grass in the outfield long and the match being played on an artificial wicket a game of pairs cricket was decided upon. Cumnor won the toss and decided to put our boys into bat, Conrathe and Rose were first up  followed by Obikoya and Gache some middle order hitting from Kroeger and Alexandru kept the score board ticking over, Young and Gooda tried hard to keep the momentum going and Fry and Sparrow [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After the wettest April on record and a miserable start to May it was a minor miracle that we were able to play at all today. The boundaries were shortened to avoid the waterlogged areas, and after discovering that cricket balls failed to bounce on the sodden strip the match was played with a lighter, plastic ball. Skipper Singleton won the toss and put Cumnor in to see what they would make of the conditions. This was literally the first time the team had been on the square this season, but you&#8217;d never have guessed that as our opening attack [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This week the U10B team took on Cumnor House at rounders. After not having done much because of the weather the girls were a little nervous, plus it was some of the girls first ever rounders match. After having a little warm up and some bowling practise Cumnor arrived and we were ready to begin. This week we played 27 good balls and decided that after 2 &#8216;no balls&#8217; the batter would have to run on the third. This was to ensure the game kept flowing and everyone got a good innings batting and fielding. Copthorne batted first and didn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

This team was put together and with 3 girls playing up, so a good team spirit was required. Cumnor arrived with 12 girls and we just had 9 players.  Francesca took the honours of being a Captain and we went into bat first.

We won the toss and put Cumnor into bat first.  Our fielding was brilliant!  The Cumnor girls found it hard to find the gaps and after 18 good balls from Roselly’s brilliant bowling, they only managed to score ½ a rounder.  It was down to the last 12 balls when the Cumnor girls started taking risks and [...]]]></description>

Being most, if not all the girl’s first rounders match, it was used as a training game to learn more about rounders. Copthorne lost the toss and were sent to bat first. It took a while before the girls made contact with the ball but ran sensibly between the posts. On her second go with the bat, Madeleine connected one perfectly and scored an impressive rounder. Holly also got in on the act and placed the ball beyond 3rd deep and got ½ a rounder. Cumnor came flying out [...]]]></description>

Cumnor won the toss and elected to bat but were quickly in trouble against the hostile James, who bowled with real pace, as they slumped to 2 for 3. After such a great start are lack of penetrative bowling began to leak runs and they recovered to 43 before Morgan struck. Further indifferent bowling before James nipped out 2 more with the help of catches from Ollie H and Morgan. Elliot dismissed number 6 through a stunning catch from Nils on the boundary who made it all look very casual. 123 [...]]]></description>

The children  followed the string with their magnifying glass, examining in close detail the journey from a mini beast’s point of view. They were encouraged  to think about what the mini beast would have to walk on to get from one end of the string to the other. What would it see? Could they count how [...]]]></description>

It is actually a huge wheel! (By Abigail) HMS Belfast is a wonderful navy ship. It was a WW11 ship. It is a museum now. It sits in the Thames silently. (By [...]]]></description>

They have also been working as a team to make a huge Olympic torch in 3D. The older classes have made individual Olympic torches and been learning numbers 1-20 by playing number games with miniature Olympic torches at circle time. The children in Mrs Lumley’s class decided they wanted to make a big 3D Queen Elizabeth so had lots of fun with newspaper and wallpaper paste creating a papier Mache bust of Her Majesty to display [...]]]></description>

Both 3s and 4s will be singing some of the songs that we have learned in our French lessons. The concert begins at 9 AM and should not last more than an hour. Year 3 and 4 pupils will go back into lessons after the concert. As it is non-uniform day I have asked pupils to wear something red, blue and/or white. No Football/rugby tops please for the performance. Merci Madame Dodson]]></description>

Charlotte and Katie dominated the afternoon winning all their matches comfortably. Both players demonstrated some fantastic forehand and backhand winners all around the court. Amber and Sofia did themselves proud; the two of them had the longest matches and rallies and fought all the way until the end. They came away with one win and narrowly missed out against Cumnor’s 1st pair. Georgia and Francesca did a good job as our third [...]]]></description>

Well almost, as Brambletye managed to book the East Grinstead sports club and the U13 and U11 boys had the opportunity to play some indoor cricket. I have to say my heart went out to our brave girls, their supporters and the umpires gallantly trying to play rounders on the outside astro in the rain.   Our game was significantly drier and gave the boys, albeit a small number, a bit of competetive cricket. I have to say it was great fun and well worth doing.The boys [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Year 3KW had the challenge to strengthen an A2 sheet of tissue paper so that it could hold at least a 100g weight. Working in pairs they came up with different solutions. Freddie and Elliott won the challenge by PVA glueing small sheets of the tissue paper together to make a very robust structure. We only had 1kg 900g in weight and it stood up to that without any problem. Ayush, Ethan and Jonathan decided to sellotape around their paper and the final structure supported 300g. Nura and Josie folded their paper in a rectangular shape and theirs held 200g. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mrs Bogdanovski’s class have received a similar letter although theirs is from a lion in Africa. Shriya replied: Dear Lennie, After you arrive I would like to help you find your way around London. You should visit the Tower of London to see the Queen’s crown jewels and Buckingham Palace to see the Queen. I think that you should also visit your cousin Leo in Trafalgar Square. I will give you directions to get to all these places. You could also visit one of  the  restaurants in London. What is your favourite food? Mine is spaghetti with tomato sauce.  Looking forward to [...]]]></description>

I know that your teacher loves me and that you are the children that she teaches. Now… I am coming to London next week to see all the sights and take part in the celebrations. I wondered if YOU would like to help me get from the airport to London and to find me a hotel please. After that I would love you to be my guides!

		<description><![CDATA[Year 2 have recently received another offer to buy a book with their children’s work printed in it. Although I am sure it would be wonderful to see their work printed, please be aware that they are expensive books to buy (approx. £15) and every child who has entered the competition gets the same letter – not judged on merit.  We will be more careful about entering this type of competition in the future!]]></description>
