1st X1 Cricket

Our 1st XI Cricket team celebrated their first victory for the season with a nail biting victory over Aldro. Feltonfleet lost the toss and were sent in to bat first. After a good start and partnership between Daniel O and Freddie D, a couple of quick wickets slowed the run rate down a bit.  Luckily Daniel and Jack T had their eyes in, pushing our total to a respectable 126 for 9 after 25 overs. Daniel was finally caught out after 53 magnificent runs.

Aldro's attack was very quickly stopped by the brilliant bowling of Nathan F, who took four wickets in his first three overs, supported by Mike van R who added another three runs to our wicket tally. The bowlers and fielders, especially Henry M,  kept the runs down during the last few overs to allow Feltonfleet to win the match by only two runs.

Congratulations to the whole team for an exceptional performance!

An unforgettable trip to Le Château de Chanterelle in France for some of our Year 7 pupils over the past few days. From exploring the local markets, to learning about cheese-making at @lavachedelouvicamp, diving into sea life at @planetenausicaa, indulging in chocolate delights at @chocolatbeussentlachelle, and delving into history at @coupole_france's WWII bunker complex. Education, adventure and memories all in one. #FeltonfleetYear7 #FeltonfleetLanguages #FeltonfleetIdentityAndCulture

A huge thank you to our wonderful guest authors who visited Feltonfleet as part of our World Book Day celebrations. @julian_sedgwick held his audience spellbound with his tales of resilience, @jmeggittphillips had everyone in stitches whilst creating gruesome villains, @tompalmerauthor enthralled pupils with how he honours real people in his war stories, and @chloe.inkpen guided pupils on the journey of creating their own books, emphasising the importance of embracing mistakes as opportunities for new creations. Our visitors' inspiring stories and passion for literature have fuelled the love for reading and writing in our pupils. We're grateful to each, for the time and dedication to nurturing young minds. #FeltonfleetLiteracy #FeltonfleetEducationalExcellence
