Hockey Trip to Lee Valley
Some of our Year 6 girls were excited to join 90 girls from year 7 through to year 10 over to Lee Valley Hockey Centre at the Olympic park.
They watched 4 matches:
GB Men v Spain
GB Women v China
Germany Men v Australia
Germany Women v Australia
A number of our girls were selected to go on the pitch and be flag bearers, other than very soggy knees, they had a great time being front and centre!
Three of our girls were chosen to be mascots for the GB Women’s game
The girls were able to meet the GB squad for photos and autographs!
