The newest recruits to the Junior Reporters’ Club, Year 3 pupils, Shamal, Joe and Sebastian, have just sent in ‘copy’ of their latest news! We hope you enjoy reading their newspaper reports.

Rugby by Junior Reporter, Sebastian, Y3O

Recently Year 3 went on rugby tournament to Manchester Grammar School. It was lots of fun! We did fitness first with the First Team coaches. We did ball control to start off then we followed this with running with the ball.
Next we played some matches: we played against Manchester Grammar, Yorkshire and City of Liverpool. We won a lot of games. I think we won them all!
Then we had lunch. I had tuna sandwiches – it was absolutely delicious! Finally we went back to school, exhausted but happy. I had a really great day!

Crosby Hall Educational Trust by Junior Reporter Joseph, Y3O

Recently Year 3 went to a place called Chet. Our favourite place was the adventure playground. We did rope swinging where we held onto a rope, jumped up and swung. We had a competition to see who could swing the furthest. We also did den building! I had my mum on my team and we also had Mr O’ Shaughnessy. The first thing we did was we went orienteering where we went into the forest and tried to find leaflets which were labelled. We had to find the colour orange because our colour was orange. It was a really good day. I hope I can go there again soon!

Cricket by Junior Reporter Shamal Y3W

Cricket is an amazing sport to play!
If you play cricket you need a lot of skill and the main thing is that it full of fun!
You can train at Ian Robinson Sports Centre at Merchant Taylors Boys School in the evening.
A few years ago the best cricket player of all times was Suchin Tendulker!

This week the boys have been involved in a project to raise awareness of homeless people; in particular those in Liverpool. The ‘Wrapping Liverpool in Love’ Project will take place on Valentine’s Day whereby knitted scarves will be placed around trees and lampposts for homeless people to take (or anyone in need). A tag is attached to each scarf with a message/picture from the boys at the Junior School to brighten someone’s life and show that they care. Michelle Langan the project leader spoke to the boys in assembly and will be talking about their involvement on City Radio on 9th February after 10.00 pm.
