A Thursday Night Tournament

On Thursday night, St. Bedes was filled with a competitive atmosphere as the boarders were split into 5 teams to compete in the Thursday Night Boarder's Tournament. There were four different activities, each requiring various members from The Budgies, The Sparrows, The Eagles, The Buzzards, and The Kestrels to represent their team. Our speedy little Spanish player, Tomas, won the ping pong for his team whilst John Wider 'crazily' took the lead in the Super Mario Kart competition. Meanwhile, the battle for points was being carried out on the pool table with a doubles pool game and a ball was being thrown left, right and centre in the gym as the remaining team members played basketball. We finished up the evening and rounded the children in the dining room, where they had their hot chocolates whilst eagerly awaiting Mr Callow's winning team announcement. And the winners are.....THE SPARROWS!!!! Congratulations and well done to all our competitors!
