News from the Sports Master
This week was the last week of the term for matches against other schools.  The U9 teams finished with a very successful afternoon on Tuesday against St John’s Beaumont, with two wins, a draw and a loss.  The U9A&B teams will finish off their term when they travel to Oratory Prep School on Saturday for a 6 a-side tournament.

The U11 teams travelled to Gayhurst on Wednesday for triangular matches with The Beacon - their last football fixtures as pupils of Claires Court Junior Boys!  Therefore it was fantastic that all teams finished really strongly. Across the nine games played we came away with 6 wins, two draw and only one loss.

The U10 teams will finish their season on Friday when we host Gayhurst and Davenies.

Next week will see the pupils compete for their House’s with the U8 & U9 teams competing in the House football on Tuesday and the U10 & U11 teams playing on Wednesday.  All this before the House Cross Country Championships on Friday. Parents are invited to come and watch both the football and cross country competitions. We look forward to welcoming your support.

News from the Chess Master
The last of the entry forms have disappeared from the Chess noticeboard which means that our termly tournament will be held on Monday.  Entry is now closed as we need to prepare the electronic draw over the weekend. Boys who are taking part can bring a snack with them, but there will be some snacks on sale if the boys bring some tuck money in with them.

Maidenhead Junior Chess Congress will be held here at CCJB over the Easter holidays on Friday 12 April.  An entry form is here.
