Pupils from Stepaside CP School have recently taken part in a number of national and area sports competitions.

The school were delighted with the performance of Kristina Ardern in the URDD National swimming gala held in Cardiff recently, where she won a bronze medal. Congratulations Kristina.

The football team recently won through to the regional round of a national football tournament hosted by Swansea City FC.

At the regional competition which was held in Llanelli, Stepaside played teams from south west Wales, putting in a great performance on the day but eventually beaten by some strong competition from other schools.

Led by former pupil Aled Waters, the Year 5 and 6 pupils trained in contact rugby in readiness for a Pembrokeshire six nations tournament, with the school representing Italy in the matches played in Carmarthen.

With only a few training sessions under their belts and only three club players amongst the team, Stepaside put in a top performance and managed to win 4 of their 5 games.

This performance was down to the great training and brilliant team work. The school are looking forward to more sessions and working on our skills.
