16 boys travelled to compete in a match v Horris Hill, they ranged from Year 3 to Year 8 and they were all keen on their Judo. George Tregoning captained the team and after the first round Pinewood led 11-6, so the pairings were mixed around and eventually we ran out winners 18-17. Every boy gave one hundred percent and there were some incredibly skilful throws especially Sam Basham’s final effort. For a number of the children it was their first every contest and the Pinewood children certainly did themselves proud. Our thanks go to Martin Small for running such an excellent competition.
The team consisted of: George Tregoning, Lucas Arkwright, Ned Corfield, Reuben Arkwright, Howard Hawkes, Tommy Birch, William Taylor, Jacob Robinson, Samuel Basham, Max Fraser, Patrick Hannon, Max Tite, Ollie Beckett, Tom May, Harry Piggott and Derry Carter Brennan.

Sailing lessons will restart in the Summer Term. This has been a very successful activity in the past, with Pinewood pupils really enjoying the course and learning a lot in the process.
Please let Mr Bischoff know as soon as you can if you would like your child to have lessons at the South Cerney Outdoor Education Centre. The lessons will be on six Thursdays (during the normal Thursday afternoon activities session) in the Summer term, leaving Pinewood at 3.05pm and arriving back at 6.00pm.
We need six children to make up a group and then the cost per child will be £92 for the six 2 hour lessons (if we don’t get six children the price will increase pro-rata). Lessons are available at Stage 1, 2 or 3.

Pinewood is holding a National Schools Equestrian Association Show Jumping competition on March 31st 2012 at Summerhouse Equestrian Centre in Gloucestershire. This will be a prestigious affair with qualifying events for the National Championships later in the year.
We already have a number of sponsors, but if any businesses are willing to sponsor another class we still have space. There will be a great opportunity to advertise in our programme and we will ensure plenty of announcements on the day. Advertising banners can also be accommodated. We are hoping to attract many competitors from schools, both locally and from further afield.
We will also be looking for volunteers on the day so please put the date in your diaries. It should be a fun day out with lots of opportunity to support the Pinewood Equestrian Team!
For further information on sponsorship, volunteering or if you would like to compete at the event, please email Melanie Norris at mellors.norris@btinternet.com

Please take the time to read the following from the Director of Sport regarding Games and PE clothing requirements:
Please could I ask you all to check that your child has the correct Games and PE clothing and that it is clearly marked. This allows for each child to get the full benefits and enjoyment out of their sessions as it minimizes lost time in the changing rooms before and after Games and PE sessions. The key areas are as follows:
