House Captains and new House Names!

This year we welcome 8 more House Captains to lead our houses. But. a significant change to the way St. Matthew’s does its houses is that this year we have decided that every year we will choose a different social action project as supposed to having the same social action project every year. Another decision made (which is more permanent that the social action projects changing) is that we’ve chosen new House Names!

They are now:

  • Cecil = Pankhurst
  • Wilberforce = Radacanu
  • Churchill = Rashford
  • Spencer = Attenborough

Our new House Captains are

  • Tilly and Clem of Pankhurst house!
  • Finlay and Sophie of Rashford house!
  • Ryan and Rosie of Attenborough house!
  • Arthur and Katrina of Radacanu house!

Girls Football Tournament!

On the 12th of October, our Year 6 and 5 football team played in a Merton tournament in the Raynes Park cluster. They played six games in total with their final game going to penalties, after nail-biting extra time. They are now in the Borough finals, which will be played in November. We want to wish them all, “Good Luck!”

Our team consisted of:

  • Ella
  • Tilly
  • Katrina
  • Ester
  • Sophia
  • Charlotte
  • Olivia
  • Natalie
  • Natalie

And a huge thank you to Mr. Crome, Mrs. Carroll and Paddy for taking them all to the venue and shouting themselves hoarse in support!

St-Matthew’s Day! 

On the 21st of September, we celebrated St. Matthews day with fun on the field for every class from Reception to Year 6. We all had a wonderful time and for some of the younger children, it was their first time on the field. It was so lovely to all be together again after almost two years of bubbles!

 

It was really exciting to meet all the young children joining reception and was really enjoyable to be as a whole school again!
