2023 Leavers Return For Past Pupil Matches
Crescent School gave a warm welcome to the Leavers of 2023 when they returned to their old primary school to take part in the annual Past Pupil Sports Matches on Tuesday 16 April.
Many have stayed within the Foundation, and now attend Princethorpe College, but a number have moved on to other schools.
It was lovely to see all their familiar faces and to welcome them and their parents back into school. It was even better to catch up with their news while enjoying tea and cakes. First on the agenda was a tour of the school and then it was off to the field and courts respectively, ready to face Crescent’s teams.
The matches were great fun to watch, full of great sporting spirit, and fast paced with plenty of shots on goal. Midway through the netball teams swapped over to ensure everyone had a chance to play. Sport is such a huge part of life here at Crescent, and it was wonderful to see the camaraderie of all the pupils.
This year the results in the Football were 4-3 to Crescent Year 6, with a super performance from everyone, including Sam and Roisin who filled in as honorary 7s. Then in the Netball the Year 7s resoundingly came out on top beating the Year 6s 11-2 with fantastic shooting from Mya and Grace from last year's National Final team. What matters most though, is that great fun was had by all.
We always like hearing from past pupils and encourage everyone within the Crescent community to stay in touch with the school. The Foundation has an active alumni community, past parents are welcome to join, as are past pupils once they have finished their secondary education.
