Murray Cup 2020 Champions 7th February 2020 Dear Parents There was a wonderful atmosphere on the Henderson Fields last Saturday as we contested the Murray Cup. I was delighted to see our squads perform so well and retain the trophy. We are all looking forward to the House Music Competition, which takes place this afternoon. In previous years, we have enjoyed assorted themes, such as The Beatles or West End Musicals. This year, our theme is Hymns, which I am sure will bring a different set of challenges. On Monday, we shall welcome the two inspectors who are visiting for the Diocesan Inspection. I would be grateful if you could complete the questionnaire (on-line or in hard copy), since it is important that the parental perspective is an intrinsic aspect of the report. Yours sincerely, Michael Connolly

Sports News Sports Report The last week has been all about The Murray Cup. The event is an annual rugby competition between the two schools, Cranmore and Rokeby. It was initiated in 2016, after a leaving Year 8 Rokeby pupil declared that his favourite yearly fixture was against Cranmore and wanted to honour it with a trophy. The event now has a points system, which includes all the teams in Years 4 to 8. The finale of the event was on Saturday morning with the final six matches taking place. With five Cranmore wins added to the many other wins throughout the week, I'm very pleased to say that Cranmore were awarded champions of The Murray Cup 2020. Well done to all involved! Mr Hodgson, Director of Sport
