Year 9 Netball

2010-03-03T14:31:13+00:00March 3rd, 2010|

Test Valley 2 – Harrow Way 23 This was Harrow Way netball at its best; slick passing, completed with excellent shooting. The Year 9 team is growing into a mature and well-drilled side. Lydia Moulding and Annie Leigh Brookes are combining really well in the shooting circle and are so consistent [...]

Under 16 Netball

2010-03-03T14:22:58+00:00March 3rd, 2010|

Test Valley 2 – Harrow Way 24 Another fine victory for this well established team. Laura Gilbank completely dominated in centre court and test Valley rarely got the ball as far as their shooting circle. Cathy Murray and Kim Willis constantly intercepted and rarely looked challenged. Alice Longshaw and Steph Jackson [...]

Year 7 Netball – 24 February 2010

2010-03-01T14:24:21+00:00March 1st, 2010|

Harrow Way 13 Test Valley 0 This was a most impressive win for this young team, despite the fact they have had such a long break between matches due to the weather. From the start Eleanor Potter had her eye in and managed to pop away a few shots to give [...]

Year 8 Netball – 24 February 2010

2010-03-01T14:24:41+00:00March 1st, 2010|

Harrow Way 5 Test Valley 6 This was a very evenly matched game and could have gone either way right until the final whistle. However, test Valley had a very strong defence and their shooters took advantage of their shooting chances better than Harrow Way. Izzy Smart worked tirelessly to keep [...]

2010-02-12T15:20:48+00:00February 12th, 2010|

This year, five Year 7 teams are representing Harrow Way School in a Social Enterprise competition called ‘One Big Idea’.

Holocaust Memorial Day

2010-02-12T14:41:55+00:00February 12th, 2010|

To mark Holocaust Memorial Day and as part of our ongoing UNICEF Rights Respecting School initiative, holocaust survivors Walter Kammerling and Zigi Shipper visited the school recently to give their testimonies. Both of these events were hugely successful, bringing alive for students everything they have learnt in the curriculum whilst reinforcing [...]

Day 6 – Saturday 6 February

2010-02-06T23:36:45+00:00February 6th, 2010|

Last night we had another foot of snow! We couldn’t wait to get out on our skies and play in the powder. The GCSE students benefited from an earlier start than the other groups as they were videoed for their coursework practical and they skied on untouched runs in perfect weather [...]

Day 5 – Friday 5 February

2010-02-06T00:37:59+00:00February 5th, 2010|

Before we skied we had to play hunt the lifts because it was snowing so hard that the visibility was very poor. This presented the students with a new challenge as it was impossible to see the lumps and bumps on the piste. Several students managed to get airborne, albeit unintentionally, however, most students found [...]
