Christ Church children have been training hard over the past two days to master the sport of Quidditch! Following on from the taster day last year, children practised the skills of being a seeker, chaser, bludger and keeper, all while flying on their broomsticks! It was incredible to see how well the children took on these positions and showed a great understanding of what is a quite complicated as well as fast and furious game.
Each KS2 class got to take part in two training sessions over the two days before taking part in our very own Christ Church Quidditch Cup. We had both a Year 3/4 tournament and a Year 5/6 tournament where all children played some fantastic quidditch. A special mention must go to the children who played the positions of seekers and the golden snitch who ran their hearts out to score extra points for their houses.
After an action packed, sunny afternoon, the overall result was incredibly close and came down to the score of the final match to be played. Whilst all children were deserving of being winners, the
2019 Christ Church Quidditch Champions are Sudeley!
Thanks must be given to Cheltenham Ladies College for again allowing us to use their fantastic facilities.
