PE, Year 6

On Thursday, twenty Year 6’s went up to Hayle Academy to participate in a Netball Festival against several other local schools. Penpol’s teams both played their hearts out and really enjoyed their afternoon up at the academy.

Everyone showed great sportsmanship, respect and integrity throughout, cheering the other team at the end of each game and congratulating each team in the tournament. Well done Year Sixes you represented the school brilliantly!
