On Sunday 12^th June, we hosted our annual Arion Charity Netball Event and with the sun shining I think it was our best event yet!

It was brilliant that we could welcome guests and parents back into the School this year to support us, and the sunshine made a huge difference after the rain we had last year! It was an absolutely brilliant afternoon, I was incredibly proud of the Arion girls, it was a full House effort, and they all got stuck into helping, whether it was running a food stall, manning the officiating table or umpiring the matches, the girls were fab! We sold out of crêpes and cold drinks pretty quickly, and raised lots of money on the BBQ and cake stalls.

It was great to see all 6 Houses getting stuck in, each one of them represented on the courts. The standard of netball ranged from high to slightly dodgy and these were the final standings:

Cup Winners - Pink Ladies

Cup Runners-Up - Blackford

Best Dressed - Golden State Warriors

A huge thank you to the Arion girls, to my wonderful House tutors and matron for their support, and also to the fantastic Arion families (and Mrs Dixon) who supplied some delicious cakes and played in the pretty successful Arion extras team! We raised almost £300 for School in a Bag and we all had a brilliant, fun afternoon. I’m worried how we will top it, next year!
