It’s a win for the girls’<br />

and boys’ hockey teams<br />

On Tuesday 22nd February, the Year<br />

7 and Year 8 Girls’ and Boys’ Hockey<br />

Teams attended the Borough Hockey<br />

Tournament at John Orwell.<br />

Both teams played very well throughout the competition<br />

and showed true determination and resilience to win!<br />

The boys’ team played London Enterprise Academy in the<br />

final and at half time were 3-0 up, however, LEA managed<br />

to score 3 consecutive goals within the first few minutes<br />

of the second half. The boys did not give up and got a<br />

winning goal just before the final whistle. The final score<br />

was 4-3.<br />

The girls’ team also played London Enterprise Academy<br />

in the final with a half time score of 3-0 also. The girls<br />

continued to perform well and scored a further three goals<br />

in the second half, even after LEA had secured another<br />

goal. The final score was 6-1.<br />

NEWS FROM OUR SCHOOLS<br />

Girls’ futsal<br />

tournament ends<br />

in triumph<br />

On Thursday 3rd March, our Year 7<br />

and Year 8 girls took a trip to the<br />

Copper Box Arena to compete in<br />

the Borough Futsal competition.<br />

There were 10 teams competing<br />

from across Tower Hamlets. Both<br />

teams played extremely well<br />

throughout the competition and, as<br />

always, showed determination and a<br />

desire to never give up!<br />

The teams went through to the<br />

conference cup where the A team<br />

beat London Enterprise Academy to<br />

progress onto the finals and the B<br />

team was unfortunately knocked out<br />

on penalties to Wapping High. This<br />

meant it was a Mulberry Stepney<br />

Green vs Wapping High final. It was<br />

a very intense game and Wapping<br />

went 1-0 up very quickly.<br />

However, Maryum managed to score<br />

a great goal just before the final<br />

whistle. Another round of penalties,<br />

two misses on both sides (and<br />

some great saves from Samina) and<br />

the last penalty for both and then<br />

Umayrah stepped up and scored an<br />

amazing goal! The pressure was on<br />

Wapping to score, but thankfully<br />

they missed and Mulberry Stepney<br />

Green took away the Conference<br />

Cup! Hoorah for a tense but<br />

impressive game of Futsal.<br />

Sixth Form curriculum offers access to<br />

world-leading arts institution<br />

Mulberry Stepney Green Sixth Form is unique in being<br />

able to offer a creative curriculum that allows students<br />

to focus on the three specialist disciplines of fine art,<br />

graphic communication and product design.<br />

This is especially useful for those wishing to pursue a career in the creative<br />

industries. Each area focusses on developing problem solving skills,<br />

drawing skills and creating personal responses to a theme.<br />

Last year, a group of students were accepted to Central Saint Martins,<br />

University of the Arts London and its partner site, London College of<br />

Communication to study Graphic Communication. This was especially<br />

exciting due to the status of the university being ranked first in the world<br />

for the arts.<br />

We celebrated their work and the creative achievements of our current<br />

A level cohort by holding our annual exhibition at the Arts Pavilion, with<br />

a private viewing at the end of March. The exhibition will be open for<br />

two weeks to<br />

members of<br />

the public and<br />

is a fantastic<br />

opportunity to<br />

see the work<br />

of our talented<br />

students. The<br />

work that will<br />

be on view will<br />

range across all<br />

three disciplines<br />

including<br />

models,<br />

animations and<br />

paintings. We<br />

look forward to<br />

welcoming all to<br />

the private view.<br />
