E-Safety, is an important part of the children’s education at The Ursuline Preparatory School.

On Tuesday 24th January we took a boy’s football team from Upper One, Lower Two and Upper Two to the county finals in Chelmsford. They played really well in the pool stage winning two games and drawing one. This put them through to the semi final which proved very tense and went to penalties. Unfortunately, we just lost but the boy’s were a real credit to the school.
The Upper Two Netball team went to Alleyn Court to participate in the ISA Under 11 Netball tournament. The girls won all of their matches in their pool and went through to the semi finals.
