The first-ever BHCET East Primary Netball Festival proved to be a fantastic celebration of sport, teamwork and determination as pupils from across the Trust came together for an exciting afternoon of competition at The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form. Hosted on the school's outdoor netball courts, the festival welcomed teams from Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School, St Michael’s Catholic Academy and Our Lady and St Bede Catholic Academy. Throughout the afternoon, pupils showcased impressive netball skills, resilience and outstanding sportsmanship in a series of fast-paced matches played under the Stinger Netball format.

Trust Primary Schools Enjoy Outdoor Adventure at Derwent Hill

Two primary schools from our Trust, St Charles Catholic Primary School in Spennymoor and St Joseph's Catholic Primary School in Newton Aycliffe, set off together last week for a memorable residential visit to Derwent Hill in the Lake District near Keswick. The pupils shared a coach journey and quickly joined together as one family, ready for a few days of adventure and learning in one of the most beautiful parts of the country.
