The Weekly Word
From Mr Hayden, PE teacher:
No. 23 Friday 24 March 2017
“Unfortunately the District Cup Final did not go to plan in a number of ways. The final was
rearranged twice due to the weather at the beginning of the week and the tie ended up
being played on Wykham field. The Year 10 boys gave it their all but in the end suffered
an unfortunate 1-0 loss to NOA. The team has done really well this year in both the
County Cup and District Cup, I would like to give them a massive pat on the back.
Red Nose Day

Oxford Mock Trial Competition
Start your future now!
Heading
Another success for Banbury Academy as Zelmira’s 'law squad' travelled to Oxford court
to compete in a mock trial competition. The students did incredibly well and really did
themselves proud. Especially Tehya who delivered an incredible closing statement for the
defence team, and Oscar who won an award for being the best defendant.
Vol.1 no 2 Friday 30 September 2016
Congratulations to the students and Zelmira for all of their hard work.
Banbury Area Primary Schools Netball Festival
Profile
Banbury Academy hosted the Banbury Area Primary Schools Netball Festival on Thursday.
It was a very popular event with 18 teams entering from 11 local schools. It was highly
competitive with teams battling it out for a place at the partnership finals. The 13 leaders
from Year 9 and 10 did a fantastic job of umpiring, gaining confidence as the festival
went. The eventual winners were St. Joseph’s with The Grange coming 2 nd and Dashwood
3rd.
Thanks and well done to the leaders: Abbie, Reisha, Jasmine, Molly, Hannah, Sophie,
Hollie, Lucy, Aimee, Molly, Tia and Erin.

Report by Tehya
Vol.1 no 2 Friday 30 September 2016
“On Thursday 16th March, Mrs Grover who prepared us for our Mock Trial Competition,
took us [Tehya, Lucy, Joy, Holly, Leah, Kimberley, Aaron, Cole and Oscar] on a trip to
Banbury Magistrates Court to watch some real trials to help us with our competition.
We watched 2 trials, one for a speeding offence and one for a case of assault on a police
officer and a member of staff
from Horton Hospital. They were
both really interesting to hear
about, and it really benefited us,
as we were able to really understand what to do in our roles for
the competition. We were also
given an opportunity to use one
of the court room to practise,
which was fun too.”
