Day 2: Wrenn School - Science at Saints
Posted by: The Saints Study Centre Team in Breaking newsToday, the lucky fifteen got to take part in some rugby coaching on the pitches at the Saints grounds. Community coach Tom Ennes took the Wrenn XV through their paces, as they brushed up on their catching and kicking skills. Tom was very impressed with the kicking ability of the students, saying they could kick better than him! After a gruelling training session, the students tackled a fast-paced game of rugby netball, with the girls putting their netball skills to good use, blocking a lot of passes. Miss Morris was also very excited to meet rugby star, Mark Robinson, at the end of the session!
After catching their breath, the Wrenn XV then put their data-handling heads on, working out the average weights and heights of the players, then took part in the Club Challenge. The pupils have been busy bees, designing their own sports club, which includes choosing players, designing a stadium, working to a budget, sorting out sponsorship for their team, and designing a team strip and logo.
A great day for all involved!

Today was really good, i really enjoyed the rugby games, also the club challenge was also really fun as you could create your ultimate club of any sport. The rugby was better as we got coached by the community coach was made it better.

The rugby session was wicked. I really enjoyed the games and thought it was very interesting! I would definately do it again. I think the rugby was the highlight of the day although I did also find the other activities fun such as designing our own sports team.
