Primary Schools came to play a fast and furious game of DODGEBALL to not only have fun, but to win the ultimate dodgeball trophy.

Teams were first put in to groups where they competed in a round robin to get as many points as possible. Depending on where they finished, they were put into a further group, creating more competition.

All games showed a great display of fun and skill, and final games were really close. After some great dodgeball, results were counted, revealing the winners.

In 3rd place was Hersden, who were the winners from last year. In 2nd place was Wincheap A who were beaten by their B team who were the winners.

CONGRATULATIONS!! to Wincheap B for your success and to all the teams that participated, you created a good day of fun and competition!

Students in Year 7, 8 and 9 from Canterbury Secondary schools, took part in a Talent ID event. Students took part in a circuit of different tests including, vertical jump, bleep test, balance test and many more. They even had their height, weight and arm span measured, where their results were recorded.

The results will be taken away and will show whether there are potential sport stars. Those identified as talented will get the opportunity to go up to Bisham Abbey where they will receive expert coaching and advice.

Pink Day was held at the Chaucer Technology School and consisted of Yr 9,10 and 11 girls from both Chaucer and Canterbury High.

They came together for a full packed day of activities which would result in a leadership qualification. They took part in many tasks that would help develop their leadership skills. For example, they got the chance to create their own activity in small groups with just a limited amount of equipment. The rules were, it had to be an activity that scored points and everyone in the group had to be doing something at the same time.

The girls came up with some really good ideas and took turns to demonstrate it and then complete a circuit of each others activities.

There were also some non practical activities to get them thinking about what leadership is and what makes a good leader. For example, one task was they had to write down a good role model onto a sticky note and then put it on the person's forehead next to them. They had to then take it in turns to ask questions to the rest of the group to find out who the person is that they have on their sticky note.

All the girls really enjoyed the day and have developed their leadership further.

With freezing cold temperatures, there was a good turn out for the Boys and Girls futsal tournament. The festival was held at the Victoria Rec Ground, right next to the Canterbury Academy and was run by Chris Wallis.

The tournament was aimed at those who have not started for their team, but they still displayed some great futsal. Both the Boys and Girls enjoyed the day and couldn't wait to play their next matches. Each team was helped and lead by a Yr 10/11 pupil from the Canterbury High School, who would take them to their next pitch, tell them their next game etc.

The matches themselves were refereed by the High School's very own 6th Form Girls Football Academy who ensured the games ran as smoothly and fairly as possible.

In the end, results were totalled and the winners of the Boys and winners of the Girl's tournament were both decided.

In the Girls' competition, 3rd place was Blean, 2nd was Barham and in 1st place was Sturry!!

In the Boys' competition, the winners were Sturry!!

CONGRATULATIONS and WELL DONE to every team for still coming out and taking part even though it was cold.

The lead Amy Cavanagh also went into some schools and helped with dance routines ad costumes. On the night everyone looked great and put on a spectacular show. There was also a performance from St Stephens Juniors who did a fantastic dance. The cute costumes and excelllent dancing made it very difficult for the judges to decide the winner.

The school that was congratulated for the best dancing was St Stephens Infants

Blean were awarded best dressed whilst the smiliest school was Hoath.

Congratulations and Well Done to all the schools that took part, the evening went really well and there was a big turn out of parents too.

Students from The Canterbury High School and The Primary School were visited by 200m GB Sprinter Christian Malcolm as part of the Team Super Schools Event. Ex 400m runner Todd Bennett and Christian Malcolm got kids involved in exercises throughout the day and were able to get a photo with Christian and ask him questions, This gave them an insight into his life and how he prepares for running, which was really beneficial for them. Before the event, the students that participated raised as much money as they could to help fund the school as well as Team Super Schools.

It was a successful day and the whole event ran smoothly and the children really enjoyed meeting Christian Malcolm and taking part in the exercises even though they were very tired afterwards.

 Some Canterbury High students went to Eastbourne and took part in a day of different sports.

Wth rain in the morning it didn't look too promising, but that soon cleared away to leave bright sunshine for the competiton It was a great turn out of schools and good to see lots of supporters.

All boys and girls took part in track and field events which consisted of, standing long jump, standing triple jump, speed bounce, hammer, shot, javelin, 70m, 150m, 600m 4x50m and mixed medley relay.

There were some great performances throughout the afternoon and the highlight must have been in the boys 70m when a reculver pupil ran 10secs exactly.

Overall it was quite a close competition but in the end only one team came out on top.

In 1st place was Briary, in 2nd place was Kent College and the winners were Herne Bay Juniors which was great as the P.E teacher Mr Lucas was retiring this year and so this was his last competiton.

A big thankyou goes to Pete and Claire Le Rossignol who organised the whole event and wouldn't have happened witout them. Also to the SSCo Amy Cavanagh and her group of Chaucer Sports Leaders who did a great job ensuring the events ran smoothly.

And lastly a big thankyou and well done to all the schools that took part. You all displayed some great performances in both the field and on the track!
