Thank you so much to everyone for supporting our Sports Day this week and to Miss Burnett and the staff for all their hard work. Congratulations to Cormorants on their overall victory. It was wonderful to see our value of sportsmanship on display throughout the day (the parents’ race notwithstanding!). Sportsmanship was also on display at the Year 3/4 football tournament this week, where Brixington’s Year 3 made it to the semi finals, and the Year 4 team won the whole competition in a dramatic penalty shoot out! Well done to all who took part!

The Brixington Choir took a trip to Sidmouth on  Monday to join voices with three other First Federation schools. A whole day of singing together was hosted by Sidmouth Primary and conducted by Nick Hubard from Hawkchurch Primary. The result was a fantastic performance to parents after school and the children should all be very proud of what they achieved. Thank you to Miss Wheeler and Mrs Gerry for taking the choir, and to Mrs Walker for helping with rehearsals. Thank you as well to all the parents and carers who travelled to SIdmouth to offer their support.
