There were 10 teams in total, which were split into 2 groups. We were drawn an extremely hard group, facing Richard Lander A, Mounts Bay School, Bude and Liskeard A. We finished topping the group, winning 3 out of our 4 games, scoring a total of 11 goals and only letting 2 in.
Going into the semi-final we faced Penrice, which we comfortably won 4-0.
After a long day of hockey we had our biggest challenge yet, Penair, who earlier on in the week we lost 3-0 to so knew we had to step our game up; with end-to-end play and by man-marking two of their top players out the game, we were prepared for action. The boys just topped the possession, and secured the 1st goal. Shortly after Penair scored, making it 1-1.
With only 3 minutes left on the clock our boys gave a final push, upping the intensity and work rate which paid off and resulted in a 2-1 win.
The boys were fantastic throughout the day in terms of attitude and performance, both individual and team. They deserved the win, keeping calm and composed throughout.
We now go on to play at the Regional Finals in Millfield next week!
Well done boys!

Our school motto, Esse Quam Videri (to be, rather than to seem to be), captures the essence of our identity and is defined by the 5 C's below. Underpinned by strong Christian principles, we are a caring and inclusive community which values, nurtures and develops each individual.
Click on the links below to find out more.
Curiosity to always want to discover and learn more, academically and more widely too.
Because we believe that academic excellence is an important part of human excellence. Every child is an individual and we celebrate and develop their uniqueness, helping them to become an independent learner and encouraging each child to explore, understand and cultivate their talent and abilities, whatever they may be.
Compassion to understand and champion the needs of others, in our community and beyond.
Because our mission challenges us to be a vibrant community which enables people to live their lives to the full and transform society for the better. Located in the heart of Cornwall, our distinctive, serene location supports the development of balanced, unpretentious and reflective children who understand their role as global citizens.
Confidence to build resilience by learning from both successes and failures alike.
Because we want every pupil to be comfortable in their own skin, celebrating the uniqueness of each individual in the school community. Through drama, presenting and public speaking opportunities, as well as appearing in productions and concerts, pupils learn key communication skills and gain the confidence to prosper in the real world.
Creativity to be imaginative in how we express ourselves and approach new challenges.
Because we value the development of pupils’ imaginative and creative dimensions as well as their characters. Through a broad curriculum and wide range of co-curricular activities, pupils discover the important balance between creative and logical thinking. These opportunities are fundamental to ensuring your son or daughter discovers their hidden gifts, developing a sense of individuality and a confidence in their own abilities.
Courage to enjoy becoming the very best of who we are, with integrity and ambition.
Because we believe that essential life skills are often best taught outside of the classroom, balancing an academic education. Through a wide-ranging co-curricular programme, we offer every child the chance to participate, perform and lead in the fields of their choice. In a competitive world these opportunities are fundamental to ensuring your son or daughter develops essential life skills and an ambition for life.
