🏉 𝕐𝕖𝕒𝕣 𝟟 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝟠 ℝ𝕦𝕘𝕓𝕪 𝕦𝕡𝕕𝕒𝕥𝕖 🏉 On Thursday the 26th of March for the last set of games of the season 25/26 took place for our years 7 and 8 teams. Both squads went to Trinity, with the 7s playing a mini tournament with Trinity, Newman and William Howard and the 8s playing Trinity in a straight single game. A great afternoon with lots of pupils taking part and enjoying the game of Rugby! 🏉 There was some great rugby on show and it was fantastic to see so many pupils playing, some had done previous and some never before which is really positive. The 7’s found the games tough but kept going and played some nice rugby, the 8’s demonstrated just what could be achieved if all players play, it was a great game with loads of tries! Central edging this one 8 to 6. So that is it for rugby this year, with an amazing total of over 50 games played! With the numbers and displays we have seen this season, were are very much looking forward to September. 🏏 Now onto CRICKET – training Thursdays and nets Friday lunch time!!! 🏏 Mr Barratt #SportAtCentral #Rugby #Ambition #Resilience #Respect

🔯 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝟴 𝗥𝗦 🔯 Tullie House visit On Wednesday, we took 32 year 8 students to an exhibition at tulliecarlisle showing the contribution of Hindu Civilisation to India and the world. Students heard a talk from Rashmi, a local Hindu and completed a quiz based around what they had learnt during the visit. A very informative and interesting session which deepened students understanding around Hindu history and culture, linking to their current learning in lessons. Our students were fantastic representatives of the school throughout, with a special shout out going to Noah, who engaged well throughout asking lots of thought provoking questions! #ReligiousStudies #TullieCarlisle #Ambition #Respect #Resilience
