Football match Report
On Wednesday 27th April 2016 Downshall Primary school's Year 5/6 football team played a match against South Park Primary. The team arrived and started to warm up before the 3.30pm kick-off. Downshall started the match in a positive way while creating many opportunities. During the first half South Park began to take control scoring two quick goals. Downshall soon began to move the ball out wide and managed to score a great goal with a cross that came in which was flicked into the back of the net by Younes Nibou. The team managed to create more opportunities but suddenly the South Park captain took a long range shot that found the goal as the half finished. During the second half the weather turned bad and it began to rain . South Park then scored two more goals and the match ended in a 5-1 defeat.
Ishaaq Hussain said “ It was a tough match because they were all year 6 and they had a home ground advantage but we fought hard”.
Mr Heer said “ it was a great learning opportuny for our young boys. We will come back better next time”.

Year 1 Multi Sports Competition
On Tuesday 17th May, ten Year 1 children were invited to a Year 1 Multi-Sports event at Isaac Newton Academy. The children took part in a variety of sports such as obstacle course, long jump , speed bounce and much more . The children were put into different colour groups. All the children had great fun and got to meet children from all schools in the local area as well as competing against each other too. This was the first time our Year 1’s had done such an event but their talents and enjoyment were seen by all attending . At the end of the event, medals were presented with 6 out of 10 Downshall children receiving either a bronze, silver or gold medal. I look forward to seeing how well all our Years 1's get on in their up and coming sports day.
