FOOTBALL - B TEAM MUSIC V DRAMA
FINAL SCORE DRAMA 4 V 2 MUSIC
Over 30 students took part in the annual match between Drama and Music. Music who are managed by Mr Beveridge took on Drama managed by Mr Ross. Mr Clarke recognising the need for a teacher to be able to run also played a half for each team.
The Year 9 team captained by Ben Appleton helped Drama and the year 10 B team captained by Jack Quartermaine helped Music.
A tough match ensued with Drama finally coming out on top and winning the trophy for the first time. Unfortunately Mr Ross was accused of time wasting but it was actually the fact that he could not move after 20 minutes!
Thank you to all the students who took part and we even had spectators for the first time! Also the PE department for supporting the B team initiative which is really just about students coming to play football without any pressure (apart from this match). The students enjoy it and also speak about improved confidence both on and off the field.
By Mr
“This year has seen the PE Department go from strength to strength both within the curriculum and beyond. With the Redgrave Sport Centre now fully established, the link between the school and community has grown into a thriving relationship for the benefit of both parties. Students at Great Marlow School have embraced the opportunities offered to them in sport and the PE staff have worked tirelessly to help students reach their potential. Through the constant support of the senior leadership team, sport has been allowed to flourish at the school and as a result has impacted on the competitive reputation of Great Marlow School in the district. Well done to all our students for a fantastic year of Sport!”
GMS GOLF REACHING NEW HEIGHTS
After the success of winning the Bucks School Golf Championships in May GMS were selected to represent Bucks at the National Team Golf Championships at Woodhall Spa Golf Centre.
Taylor Paul, Jamie Kerley
and Callum Kirby were selected to represent after their impressive display back in May. It was under no illusion that the competition was going to be competitive and turning up on the day seeing a number of golf colleges and academies with their personalised mini buses and high spec golf attire we knew it was going to be a tough day. However, this didn’t deter the boys and throughout the day they played extreme well. The day was split in to 2 sessions with our boys teeing off in the morning. At the end of the morning session we were placed 3rd which was a tremendous effort from the students however there a lot of strong teams still play in the afternoon including a number of past champions so finishing in the top 10 would have been a great achievement. As the results came in from the afternoon we continued to hold on to a top 5 place eventually with all the results in we ended up finishing in 6th place only finishing 4 shots back from the lead. This was an outstanding effort and achievement for the school especially as many of the other schools were specialist golf colleges and academies. On the back of this result we have been invited to the schools and colleges tour where many private schools and colleges compete.
GMS CRICKET SMASH IT OUT OF PARK
The year 7/8 cricket team had a season to remember. Throughout the league season they remained undefeated with some close and hard fought victories against Cressex, St Michaels and Sir William Borlase. On the back of being undefeated we qualified for the district final with the game being played at High Wycombe Cricket Club. The game proved to be a hard fought contest against Cressex School. GMS bowled first and performed tremendously well. There were outstanding contributions from Cam McIndoe and Ben Burton how helped to reduce Cressex to 65 off 15 overs, a well under par score at HWCC. In reply, GMS lost early wickets but a brilliant knock from Jonny Tindale then Cam McIndoe saw GMS over the line with an over to spare and remain undefeated for the whole season.
