Boys Football News – Season Review

It was a great start to the season with the A team playing full of confidence and winning their first game against Park Lane away 1 – 0 with Jack F scoring. The boys played well the whole game and the 1 goal was enough to secure the points. Man of the match was Jack F. The B team consisting of a lot of new players were also on form and through shear determination they earned a 1 – 1 draw. Man of the match was Togi E.

On Thursday 16^th March AJS played New Road School and dominated both games. The A team winning 5-0 and the B team winning 3-0. Scorers for the A team were: Ryan I (2), Jack F (1), Joe M (1) and Charlie H (1).

Jonathan S scored once and Josh H scored twice for the B team. Both teams played extremely well displaying individual skill mixed with team flare!

Man of the match for the A team was Ryan I and for the B team; Josh H.

After excellent wins the week before both teams were full of confidence, unfortunately a lucky but well taken goal by park lane meant that the A team lost 1-0.

The B team were also unlucky going down 5-2. Both teams will now need to put these defeats behind them ready for the game against New Road .

Man of the match for the A team was Aaron H and Jonathan S for the B team.

On the 26^th April AJS played a league game at New Road Primary School . The A team had most of the possession in the first half but unfortunately failed to score. In the second half New Road scored twice and although AJS kept up the pressure it was simple not meant to be. Final score 2 – 0 to New Road . Man of the match was Charlie H.

This now left the league very close between all the teams and it looked like goal difference would decide who won. After adding up the amount of goals scored by each team it was clear that AJS had scored more goals and therefore were declared champions of their league.

The B team were also in form and once again had most of the possession for the majority of the game. It was goalless at the end of the first half and soon after the restart New Road took the lead. However through great determination from the boys they managed to pull level with a Josh H goal and almost won it at the end with a couple of chances just going wide. Man of the match was Logan M.

This leaves the B team middle of their league which the boys can be very proud of.

Well done to all of the boys who have played this season. What a great one it has been.

A team consisted of:

Sam K,Joe B, Aaron H, Joe M, Jack S, Jack F, Ryan I, Charlie H, Oliver L, Luke H, Dylan O,

B team consisted of:

Togi E, Thomas B, Logan M, James S, Jonathan S, Callum H, Josh H, Alex F, Thomas HB, Reece M

Country Dancing

AJS Country-dance fever

I’m sure you’ve all heard of country music, well, you may have only heard it when you go to your grandma’s house, and she ends up dancing with you to it, but Alderman Jacobs School has taken a step further: a club dedicated to dancing to wonderful country music. The club takes place every year during spring and summer. It’s on Tuesdays, from three thirty, to ten past four, and is in the big hall, at AJS primary school. Country-dance club gets children from year’s three to six ‘ groovin’ to the music, doing dances such as the Circle Clap Dance, the Blaydon Races, and I Want To Be Near You (No, not a pop song by Britney Spears!). In the Circle Clap Dance, you circle round, go in and out of the circle, and then you do lots of claps with your partners, and then you swing with your partner. It is thoroughly enjoyable to watch. In the Blaydon Races, you go in and out of a circle twice, gallop in and out, in a swing shape with your partner, again, twice, you then swing, and promenade. Very exciting. A very detailed dance is I Want To Be Near You. We didn’t get the details of the dance because we were in shock of how professional the children looked. Some were even younger than us! The children are performing at a festival on Thursday 25^th May 2006. In two days! Other schools are going to be there also, to perform. We wish every school the best of luck.

Stunt Riding

STUNTMANIA

On the 18^th of May, a stuntman came to Alderman Jacobs School. He showed years 1, 2, 3, 4, and early years a stunt show they will remember. He did some daring stunts such as jumping off his van, and jumping from a big ramp, to a small ramp, without even touching the floor! Lots of year 4s described the experience as exciting, and cool. Unfortunately, year 5’s and year 6’s didn’t get to watch him because of the rain. Thanks to all the year 4’s who agreed to be interviewed, including Georgia J, Annie P, Harry H, and Vicky J.

Dancing like crazy.

On Mondays after school there is a club, a dancing club and they dance like CRAZY! But it is wonderful and it takes place from 3.30 – 4.15 three quarters of an hour isn’t bad. Over 25 children go to the club and Mrs Randall teaches it looks good fun. There will be a performance on the 3^rd of July at 7pm in the big hall at Alderman Jacobs school there will be tickets on sale they will be £1.50 each. The song they are working on now is called Chim Chimmery and it takes lot of practice, they dance on their own and in partners. You may think it is for girls but it isn’t, there is a mix of boys and girls and they do lots of spins, twirls and heel work and they even wear costumes. I hope you enjoyed reading this, goodbye.
