Month: March 2019

Many congratulations to Issy, who has had a brilliant run of success recently. We have just heard she has earned one of only sixteen places in the U16 National Tour Finals to be held in March, having finished twelfth in the National Tour league thanks to her performances in Sunderland and Nottingham.  She has also recently qualified for the first time into the main draw at a British Tour event (Corby).  This all follows successes in 2018 which included: National Tour finals at U14 in both Winter and Summer leagues; the Suffolk Ladies open doubles title, and a semifinal spot in the singles; three regional grade 3 U18 titles and a further doubles title; and an open women’s grade 3 title alongside two as runner-up.  She has also represented the Suffolk county team at U14, U18 and senior, never dropping a singles rubber…  No wonder she was Suffolk LTA junior girls’ Player of the Year 2017!

Many, many congratulations to Asmee who did exceptionally well in this year’s national Intermediate Maths Challenge for pupils in Years 9 to 11.  She was best in school, even though still only in Year 9, with a  magnificent score of 93 which earned her a gold award and a place in the follow-on Cayley round for the best Year 9s in the nation.

Also earning gold awards and our congratulations were Saif (91 and best in Year 11), Nathaniel and Billy in Year 11, and Rachel (91 and best in Year 10), Molly, Katie and Nina in Year 10 all of whom qualify to sit the international Pink Kangaroo paper.

Silvers were awarded to Ka Yeung, Amy, Elise and Archie in Year 9, Samuel, Ho Kan, Ariane, Seb, George, Oliver, Reace, Tilly and Talia in Year 10, and Maddie, Hal, Charlie, Medomfo and Ianthe in Year 11. Congratulations!
