Well done to our swimmers who took part in the Richmond Schools Gala last night. They swam against all the independent schools in the borough and performed magnificently, with many qualifying for the finals. The finals take place on 21 March and will be against all schools, state and independent, in the Richmond Borough, about 45 schools in total.

Congratulations go to Ella G, Benedict, Suki, Jessica, Ted, Frederick, Maddie, Arthur, Margaux, Molly, Georgina, Clemmie, Amar, Joel and Huw.

We are very proud of all our swimmers at Kew College.

Netball - Year 4 B’s Are Buzzing!

On Tuesday 6th March year 4B team played a match against Ravenscourt Park. We got the first centre pass and got off to a good start. In the first seven minutes we scored three goals and in the second half we scored two. Throughout the match we managed to keep the ball in our third but Ravenscourt Park managed to finally get it into their third. They attempted to shoot but missed.

The final score was 5 - 0 to Kew College. Well done to Celia, Tanishya, Alice, Heather, Ella Rose, Bella and Francine.

Year 5 Rugby Tournament on Kew Green

On Thursday 8th March, Year 5 played an enthralling rugby tournament at Kew Green.

Our first match was against Kew Green Prep with great tackling from Charles, George and Calum. Kew College came out 4 - 0 winners! Filled with confidence, we jogged onto the pitch to play Ravenscourt Park. We all knew it was going to be a tough game but we did extremely well considering we lost 2 - 0.

The Falcons were our next fixture and we did some great counter-rucking and earned ourselves a well-earned draw. St James were a good team throughout the afternoon, as they proved by winning a tight 1 - 0 victory. Lastly, our biggest test yet, was Latymer. Lots of us had friends on the other team so we were determined to win. Brilliant running by Soli and Ben who helped us to pull out a massive victory with an amazing run from Calum, who ripped the defence apart to sneak a 1 - 0 victory.

As the Kew Green Prep Headmaster announced the places, we all shook in excitement hoping me might just win. He shouted very loudly so we could all hear: Kew College 4th!

Well done to all the boys who played! I think we need to improve on our spacing out.
