On a bright but chilly day at the end of April, eight children from year 3 and 4 were invited to Faringdon Tennis Club to take part in the local inter-school tennis competition. Each child played 5 games against an opponent from another school and points were awarded to the winner. At the end of the afternoon the results were called out in reverse order. We waited and waited for Watchfield's name and were absolutely delighted to discover that we were the winners! All the children from all schools taking part showed super sportsmanship and I was particularly proud of the commitment to improving their game that each of the Watchfield players showed throughout the afternoon. Our win means that we qualify to go to the Vale of White Horse area competition where I know that, once again, I will be proud of all the children there. Well done Watchfield Tennis team!!
Children taking part were: Max, Riley, Rani, Harry T, Matthew B, Cate, Annabel and Linda
