Football Factory Football Fun - Friday 28th March 2025

Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming coaches from Football Fun Factory to our school. Every class had the opportunity to participate in an engaging and enjoyable football session.

As part of #LetGirlsPlay Day, a national campaign dedicated to breaking down barriers for girls in football, the coaches structured sessions to provide equal opportunities for both boys and girls. The enthusiasm from our pupils was fantastic, with many already asking when we can invite the coaches back!

Well done to all the children for demonstrating such a positive attitude throughout the sessions.

Manea win the cup! 

A team of nine Year 5 and Year 6 students represented Manea Primary at a football festival hosted by Westwood Primary in March. Competing in a round-robin format against six other schools, the team demonstrated exceptional teamwork, determination, and sportsmanship—ultimately securing victory!

Every player contributed to the team's success, showcasing the key attributes of a strong and cohesive squad. A special commendation goes to Elliot, who delivered an outstanding performance by scoring eight goals throughout the afternoon.
