Rose Hill pupil meets Lawrence Dallaglio
Rose Hill Westonbirt pupil and Chippenham mini rugby player Jack Musselwhite (8), joined around 100 other youngsters last Saturday at Twickenham Rugby Stadium for a day's training with former Wasps and England player Lawrence Dallaglio. Participants were selected to represent their clubs based on performance at Rugby Festivals held across the UK during the 2009/10 season.
Under Lawrence's watchful eye, Jack and his fellow players were put through their paces during a series of training sessions, and also enjoyed lunch in the Royal Box and the opportunity to score a try at Twickenham, watched by many envious dads!

U8/9 Boys Cricket v Grittleton
The boys came up against some stiff opposition during their match at Grittleton. The highlight of the match were the four magnificent catches taken by Robert, Alex, Jago and Ethan. Jacob played well scoring 6 runs including a four and we lost only one wicket during the game. Unfortunately, our bowling could have been better and this eventualy tipped the game in Grittleton's favour and we lost 68-32. A good display from everyone on our team though.

Biathlon Success
Congratulations to Emily Lord, Matilda Hall, Emma Hatherell and Alexia Bohin who competed in the U10 Biathlon at Stonar School on Wednesday 26th May and came away with first place in the U10B competition. Given that most of the girls are Year 4 this was a very creditable performance. A special mention to Emily Lord who came first overall. Below the triumphant girls with their winner's shield.
