Swimming
Surrey Schools Relays
Notre Dame swimmers did a great job in the Surrey School Swimming Relays on Saturday night.
The junior girls won the silver medal in the 4 x 50m front crawl relay coming second to Guildford High. All teams finished in the top 6! I’m hoping we qualify for the School Nationals in Birmingham again in November.
Gala v St Catherine’s
We went to St. Cat’s on Monday night for a very friendly swimming gala for the new year 7s and the year 8s.
Swimmer of the gala goes to Ava T for her commitment and support to the new year’s 7s.
Hockey
U14 A – B against Sir William Perkins’ (SWPS)
Both games were a game of 2 halves, where we were nervous in the first half and ended up playing a lot of deep defence. Both GKs, P. Owens & I. Manuel were class and kept their teams right in it. At Half time both teams were 4-0 down. Half time a confidence booster of what we were doing well, and a reminder of some of the key points to successful out letting meant that the second half we were much more on top. The final scores being 4-0 for the As and 6-2 for the Bs.

Netball
U18 A and B v SWPS
U18 A
Led by captain Ellie D, this was a really competitive game for our team who had never played together before as it was their first match of the season. We played extremely well together as a team and the final score SWPS 39-ND14, didn’t do us justice. During the last quarter SWPS only just took it 9-7. We have lots of learning to take from it and look forward to a great season ahead!
MVP as voted by opposition – Ciara S
U18 B
Our team consisted of all U16 players who played up in this U18 match and drew match 19-19. It was a fantastic game with all 7 playing the whole match and they played against an older side! A great t4eam spirit by ND and some great shooting on display!
Freya S Captained the team and was also voted MVP by the opposition
Overall it was a really good 1st day on the netball court for Team ND!
