Cricket Festival Frenzy!

On Monday 12th June, in the grounds of The Academy, Woolwich Common, an 8-strong team of Year 4 Heronsgate cricket aces faced off against school teams from across the borough. The competition was close and intense with points being won and lost with runs, runouts; bowls and mis-bowls. With each game played, awareness grew, along with communication and skills.

In game one, we were out-batted by Windrush. In game two, we were out-bowled by St Mary’s D. Game three against St Mary’s G was very close. We finally won game four against St Margaret’s A with some sensational batting and fielding.

Every one of our team members were winners, having improved gameplay and scoring, having enjoyed themselves hugely, and having represented the school with tremendous sportsmanship. An enormous thanks go to all the excellent organisers and coaches at Platform Cricket as well as to staff from Heronsgate who accompanied us and drove the minibus.
