On Saturday 9th March, 8 students (a mix of years 8-13) performed in Northampton School for Boys' annual dance show 'Junction'. The girls performed exceptionally well and represented CCS in an impeccable way. They worked extremely hard attending regular rehearsals in the build up to the show to ensure they were confident and could perform to a high standard. This was the first time CCS had performed at Junction, and we look forward to next year, where we will hopefully get an opportunity to attend again. Well done to all involved!

Congratulations to our Year 8 boys who won their first league game of the season 3-2 vs Sponne last night (Sponne 2 – 3 Caroline Chisholm School). 

It was a very tightly contested first half with CCS dominating possession and having the best opportunities to score. However, after a controversial refereeing decision, Sponne went into half time 1-0 up.

With much to debate about at half time, it was agreed that this was the incorrect decision and Sponne did in fact let us walk the ball through and score at the beginning of the second half. The same theme for the second half, CCS dominating possession and having many clear cut opportunities to score, these did eventually pay off with CCS going 2-1 up through A Campbell. A long range effort from K Inana in the later stages of the second half saw us take the game away from Sponne, and the boys continued to control the game with Sponne getting one back, but it was too late for them to complete the comeback.

On Saturday 20 January, 14 students from CCS represented South Northamptonshire at the Cross-Country Championships. It was fantastic that students from Year 6 all the way up to Year 12 were representing the school and South Northamptonshire. These students were selected to represent South Northamptonshire after placing in the top 20 at the district cross-country event.

Students F. Carty, E. Taylor, J. Twining and L. Turner all ran brilliantly, securing their spots in the inter-counties Anglian Cup which took place on Saturday 3 February. 

After great performances at both the County Championships and the Anglian Trophy Meeting, J. Twining and L. Turner have been selected to represent Northamptonshire at the English Schools Cross Country event against the 45 other Counties across England – A great achievement!
