Rothesthorpe Girls' Rugby – Following in the Footsteps of the Red Roses! What an incredible morning for our amazing girls' rugby team! Inspired by the Red Roses, they took part in a fantastic rugby festival and truly did us proud. With determination, brilliant teamwork, and some dazzling runs, the girls showed off their skills and scored some superb tries. They only lost one game – a testament to their spirit and effort on the pitch. Every single player contributed, and every single one left with a smile. Well done, Rothersthorpe girls – you've made us all proud!

An Inspirational Visit from Olympian Joe Roebuck! Today, we had the absolute privilege of welcoming Olympic swimmer Joe Roebuck to Rothersthorpe Primary School. What an incredible role model and what an opportunity for our children! Joe shared his journey to becoming an Olympian, inspiring us all with his determination, resilience, and the importance of never giving up on your dreams. Our pupils were fascinated to hear about the hard work, dedication, and perseverance it takes to compete at the very highest level. He also led an exciting fitness session that got everyone moving, smiling, and realising that sport is not just about competition – it's about teamwork, confidence, and enjoying being active. The children left the hall buzzing with excitement and inspired to set their own goals, both in and out of the classroom. A huge thank you to Joe Roebuck for visiting us today and reminding us that with belief, effort, and resilience, anything is possible! #Inspiration #RoleModel #OlympicSpirit #RothersthorpePrimary #TeamGB

We are delighted to announce that Rothersthorpe have achieved the School Games Silver Mark Award for the 2024/25 academic year. The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success. With so many of our young people competing in local inter-school competitions this year, we are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible. As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year. We look forward to continuing a strong start as we are now going for Gold!!
