On Sunday 27 April, families from our school turned out in force to support the Northampton Town Football Club Women’s team in a thrilling match at Sixfields Stadium.

The day was made even more special as it saw a record-breaking crowd for the women’s game, with an incredible 1,142 spectators in attendance.

Pupils from both the Junior and Senior Schools were delighted to be part of the occasion. Girls had the unforgettable opportunity to take to the pitch before kick-off, proudly waving flags as the teams walked on. The excitement reached new heights when Mrs Blake won a special competition to lead the teams out and carry the match ball onto the pitch.

The match ended in a 1-1 draw, and the girls were full of praise for Northampton’s fantastic performance.

It was an inspiring day of football, teamwork, and community spirit – one that will be remembered by all who took part.
