April 3, 2025
Students have given brilliant performances so far this year as they've participated in Handball tournaments against other schools across the county.
On 16th January at Harvey Haddon Leisure Centre in Nottingham, five students represented Sutherland House School in a Key Stage 4/3 inclusive indoor Handball tournament organised by Sports Nottingham.
The five students were: Thomas M, Tom M, Riley, Theodore H, and Mason B. They were supported by familiar staff and for Theo and Mason this is evidence towards their Sports Leader level 1 Award.
Nine competitive games were played against other SEN and mainstream schools from Nottinghamshire. The schools included Bracken Hill, Hall Park, Oakwood, Bulwell academy, Nottingham academy, Christ the King Academy and Bluecoat school. Sutherland House School won 7 games and lost 2.
"This is the first time this group went unbeaten in the whole tournament, massive well done at the efforts displayed, such a positive morning."
On 11th March, at Harvey Haddon Leisure Centre in Nottingham, six students represented Sutherland House School in a Key Stage 3 inclusive indoor Handball tournament organised by Sports Nottingham.
The six students were: Ethan, Jake, Riley, Mylo, Thomas, and Jacob.
The students wore red bibs/vests and played five competitive games against other schools from Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. The games were marshalled by Sports Nottingham and leads of PE from all the schools.
Some of the students involved played in the Handball event last year therefore they had a good understanding of the rules, scoring and teamwork. This is the first time that this group of students went unbeaten in the whole tournament so a massive well done at the efforts displayed and such a positive morning.
Thanks to Nathanial and Coden for supporting and encouraging our students to shake hands at the end of the game and remain sportsperson like throughout.
