I am so proud of the students we took to this event. They worked hard as a team and supported each other and the students of the other schools. The coaches at AFC Bournemouth were a lot of fun and taught the children some key skills for playing football. I know our students had a blast. To top it off, our students won the Bournemouth School Games Trophy, awarded at the event. The AFC Bournemouth coaches chose our school because they said the students were well behaved, worked hard and put in 100% effort in all day. Well done St Michaels.
