Year 8 and 9 Football Success

On Tuesday 25 September, both the Year 8 and Year 9 girls football teams made their first start to the academic year versus North Liverpool Academy.

Both matches were played at a high tempo with the College struggling to adapt to the strong but fair tackling of the home side. It was Liverpool College Year 8s who took the lead with a superb strike from Captain Holly B (Howard’s) and at the same time on pitch two, the Year 9 team went a goal down to the hosts. The second half saw goal chances for both teams and it was the College who were successful on both pitches, firstly Captain Libby H (Howson’s) equalised for the Year 9 team and then Leona SP (School) finished off a superb move for Liverpool College to grab an all important goal in the Year 8 match.

Final Scores:

North Liverpool Academy Y8 0 - Liverpool College Y8 2
North Liverpool Academy Y9 1 - Liverpool College Y9 1

Kayaking on a Sunday morning

Kayaking on Sunday morning in 20 mile an hour winds was not for the faint hearted! Fifteen of our boarders decided to take the plunge, literally, this weekend, under expert instruction from the staff at the Liverpool Water Sports Centre.

Luckily, they all brought a change of clothes and a towel so that at the end of their session when they dived into the Mersey for a bit of fun, they didn’t come back to us sopping wet!

Pupil Commendation

Two pupils received a Principal’s Award at the secondary phase assembly today for their service to the community.

The school was contacted by an impressed member of the public during the week to report the actions of two pupils who she had witnessed assisting someone who had fallen over on the pavement. Our pupils, Lennon W (Selwyn’s) and Alhusain (Butler’s), helped up the person who had fallen and carried her bags into a nearby shop to make sure she got the care she needed.

The actions of these pupils epitomised the first Lerpoolian Standard: A Lerpoolian is respectful, polite and courteous at all times and in all places.

Prep Apple Trees

As part of a school council project – set up (as far back as 2002) by the then Head of Prep, Mrs Nelson to help improve the aesthetic qualities of the school site, numerous plants, including 100 daffodil bulbs, were distributed around the grounds by the pupils then in attendance. These plants – rising to the surface with the seasons – have since brought pleasure to pupils and staff every spring.

Each Form Class was also given a young tree, a sapling – either plum, apple or pear – to dig into the ground, with those grouped together at the side of the tennis courts forming an orchard of sorts. Of the three remaining apples trees, one has come into a bumper crop this year!

Year 6 pupils have had fun this week, picking and collecting apples that have yet to be gobbled up by birds, worms or squirrels!
