We'd like to wish three of our Year 6 pupils good luck during their trip to Jersey with East Cornwall Schools Football Association at the Jersey Football Festival! The boys will be competing against different associations throughout the week in highly competitive matches as well as exploring the beautiful island. What an unbelievable experience and something they will never forget! #schoolsfootballweek #JerseyFootballFestival

What a fantastic day our Year 5 pupils had on their trip to Mevagissey today! The children took part in a range of geography fieldwork activities linking to our recent topics on Coastal Processes and Tourism. It was wonderful to see them applying their classroom learning in a real-world setting. There was also time for some seaside fun, with rock pooling and stone skimming proving to be definite highlights of the day! A huge thank you to 'The Fishermen's Chippy' for kindly providing us with delicious chips – the children absolutely loved them!

Rosewarne Shield Semi Finalists We had another thrilling game with are close rivals Mount Charles in the Quarter final stage of the Rosewarne East Shield. Our A team footballers had to dig deep and recover from conceding an early goal which they did brilliantly by responding with a well worked equaliser before half time. The team continued to show great determination and focus which was eventually rewarded with a last minute winning goal! This means we are now through to the semi finals of the competition where we will face Charlestown. We also managed to play a friendly fixture alongside the Quarter final game where our Year 5 boys played against Mount Charles. This was also an end to end match with Mount Charles coming out on top with a 3-1 win. Our team didn't let the result have a negative impact on their experience as they all had an enjoyable time and represented our school with such positivity and enthusiasm which was great to see. In addition to the Semi Final, there's still more football to come with our Y4 girls taking part in their Mid-Cornwall Qualifier on Tuesday 21st April, the Y5/6 girls Semi Final in the Chloe Williams Shield and more friendlies in the works for the remaining Y5 girls who have not yet played for school this year. #schoolsfootball #TeamStMewan

Girls Football Opportunity We've had a few parents ask about girls football recently and whether we know of any opportunities for their daughter to get involved within the sport. Due to the high demand and interest, Mr Boynton has helped start up weekly Girls Football sessions at Charlestown Youth & Ladies FC. These sessions are for girls in Year 1 - Year 6 who don't currently play for a club/team but want to try out the sport. For more details, please see the shared post or contact Charlestown YFC via their Facebook page.

Year 4 loved their visit to St Mewan Church yesterday for a Creation Care workshop! They reflected excellently on how to help protect our planet before exploring the churchyard on a scavenger hunt, getting messy creating seed bombs and planting a sunflower in their homemade newspaper plant pots!

ESFA Schools' Football Week We have once again got fully involved in the National Schools' Football Week with our pupils making the most of the annual event, showcasing their skills and demonstrating how much they enjoy the sport! Throughout the week, all of our pupils have taking part in some form of football activity, either within their PE lessons, during their lunch and break times or when representing our school in a fixture or at a competition. This year, we were lucky enough to be selected as a 'Trailblazer' school which meant we were kindly donated additional resources and equipment from English Schools' Football Association. This has already been put to good use and will continue to support and enhance the ongoing football activities that take place throughout the school. At St Mewan, we strongly believe that no matter a child's ability or prior experience, football is something that all pupils can access and enjoy! #SchoolsFootballWeek #ESFA #SFW2026
