Mr Yarrow looked back on the day saying 'It is great to have so many children out representing the school at tag rugby. I believe there were over 40 teams in attendance today and the Clockhouse children did us proud as always.

I witnessed some individual skill and some great team scores but most importantly I watched a group of pupils enjoying sport.

Thank you to all the family members who supported or transported children. Thanks especially to Mike who volunteers his time weekly at the school to help coach our school rugby team. Finally a thank you to our schoool / club link May and Baker Rugby Club for hosting the 2 events. If you would like anymore information about playing rugby outside of school please feel free to ask me.

Well done again today to all children who represented the school, they will sleep well tonight as they did not stop running and tagging all day!'
