Our girls are incredible! Their skills and talents got them through to the competition final and their win resulted in them being asked to represent Brentford against teams from ALL over the country. The quality of teams that represented the different premier league teams was phenomenal. All the finalists from around the country were invited to play at Brentford Stadium on Tuesday. Our St Edmund's team (Brentford) played against Nottingham Forrest winning 7-0. They then drew with Liverpool 2-2, won against Chelsea 2-1, and won against Arsenal 3-1 The semi-finals were played against Burnley score 1-1 which meant they had to go to a penalty shoot-out! It was nail biting but they won 5-4 on penalties which was amazing! Our girls held their nerve and they reached the final! The final of all the best girls school teams across the country!! The final was incredible but ultimately Everton pipped them to the post! What a day – the children met at 7am and spent the day representing their school and Brentford with skill, determination and incredible team spirit! Walking out of the tunnels to cheers from the crowd has helped to secure the girls dreams about the future! They are officially the second-best team in the country and certainly the best team in London. We are so PROUD of each and every one of them – they really are an amazing team. Thank you to Mr Rose and Miss Duggan for all their support, preparation and input and the girls' wonderful parents for always being there.
Year 5 had a fun time at Turner's House this week. They learnt all about Turner's use of watercolours and the landscapes he chose to paint. Year 5 were surprised to learn that Turner's self-portrait and his most famous painting, The Fighting Temeraire, are on the back of the £20 note! The children had the opportunity to experiment with watercolours and create the colours within different landscapes. They are excited for the next session happening in July!
