CPSL FOOTBALL MATCH VS PRETTYGATE
HEATHLANDS 1 - 2 PRETTYGATE
On a cold Winter’s day on the 24th January, we travelled to Prettygate school to play a football match. Benjamin S, Ayo A, James M, Adam R, Lewis P, George M (Year 6s), Orlando and Ollie (Year 5s) and Benjamin R (Year 4).
Everybody played their best against a difficult side and we came out with a 2-1 loss. Benjamin R scored our only goal which gave everyone more enthusiasm to carry on. Despite losing we all really enjoyed it and had a great time, representing our school. Special thanks to Mr Hassard for arranging the match and to the parent helpers for driving.

CPSL NETBALL MATCH VS NORTH
HEATHLANDS 13 - 0 NORTH
Ten seconds in and the first goal already! The more goals we scored, the more exciting it became!
North were very good and played well. It was freezing cold and we were not even allowed to wear gloves! 'Why?' I hear you ask. Mrs Carter said that it was something about a tradition that you can't wear them!
Our team was: Sophie, Grace, Daisy, Isla, Luke, Benjamin and Isaac. Daisy did very well because she scored six goals - I know right!
Overall we had very good teamwork and played well. We got throw ons a lot, there is one good thing about that, it helps us score goals, but one bad thing, because it was very cold when you hold the ball up in the air your hands get really cold!
I bet you want to know the score... Drum roll please: 13 - 0 to us! Yay! North did very well throughout the game. We also got biscuits and juice at the end in one of the warm classrooms. Thank you North.

HEATHLANDS FINISH 10th!

This was a competition Heathlands had never taken part in before, but one the children were very excited to be involved in. After getting used to the weight of the balls and how they travelled on a sportshall floor, all of the children played very well, dropping balls close to the jack and knocking others out of the way when needed. It was also a bonus to meet an Olympic Boccia gold medal winner, and even have the chance to hold his medal! The team finished 10th, a result they were very pleased with after a fun and exciting day.

After a small break we got to take part in the track events. The races that were competed in were a 1, 2 and 4 lap race as well as 4x1 relays and a 6 lap paarlauf. After lots of hard work the girls team came in a close second and the boys team ran out winners, resulting in an overall win.
CPSL NETBALL MATCH VS FRIARS GROVE
Heathlands 6 - 0 Friars Grove
On Monday 3rd December, the school netball team went to Friars Grove to play their first game of the season. We played an amazing game, working together as a team the whole way through. Friars Grove made it difficult for us to get the ball and kept us on our toes. They were a great team, they played very fairly and worked just as hard as we did. It was great fun and an awesome experience; we can't wait for our next game. I am very glad to say the score was a wonderful 6-0 to Heathlands.

YEAR 3 & 4 FOOTBALL COMPETITION AT LITTLEGARTH PRIMARY SCHOOL
HEATHLANDS WIN 'B' AND 'C' FOOTBALL COMPETITION
On Monday 19th November, two football teams from Years 3 and 4 travelled to Littlegarth to take part in a competition. It was an especially cold day with the wind and rain making it feel even colder, but all of the children who took part had a great time. Both teams played impressive football, always looking to keep the ball as a team and scoring some fantastic goals. As a result of their good play, both teams made it through to their group finals, both of which were against Littlegarth. Both finals were enjoyable to watch with more fantastic football with Heathlands winning the 'B' and 'C' competitions. While it was great to see the children enjoy winning this event, it was more enjoyable to watch children having fun and looking to play attractive football. Well done to all of those that took part.
CBSSP GIRLS FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT
HEATHLANDS WIN CBSSP GIRLS FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT!
On Tuesday 13th November, we went to play in our first tournament of the year, The Colchester and Blackwater School Sports Partnership Girls Football Tournament.
As we arrived the sun was shining and we were all excited to get under way.
From the outset we worked as a team with early passing from Catherine and Millie and we tried to counter our opponents, having good success with goals from Poppy, Hollie and Chloe. Amazingly, we won all the games in our side of the draw.
In the semi finals we met a well organised team from Lawford and it was a very close game but we didn’t give up and just edged it with a 1-0 win. This meant we were in the final against Kelvedon.
Again the final proved a tense affair with both teams playing some good football. In an amazing move we played the ball out-wide for Sophie to strike and score! This was enough to secure the victory and for Heathlands to win the tournament.
Next up- The county finals!!!
IPSWICH HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COMPETITION
On 18th October, two teams of year 4 boys and girls took part in a Year 4 and 5 football competition at Ipswich High School. All of the children were excited to play against other teams as well as being a little nervous to find that most children taking part were a year older than them. Throughout the competition children looked to play good football, with some great defensive and attacking performances. On this occasion neither of the teams made it through to the final group, but all enjoyed the opportunity to play competitive football and were keen to represent the school again in the future.
