Cricket fixtures for the coming week:
A huge congratulations to Ed who scored his Maiden EGS century against Wren Academy recently!
A destructive 122 runs off just 9 overs caused havoc on the lower school grounds.
Ed is the first pupil in over 3 years to achieve this impressive record. Obviously one to look out for on the pitch!
Ben, recently named Clubman of the Year at Enfield Town FC, made a significant impact as a volunteer over the past six months. He managed the club’s social media, capturing and sharing content across various platforms which helped grow the club’s audience.
Gabriel Meytanis, Director of ETFC, says that Ben consistently dedicated 5–6 hours on matchdays and sometimes covered training sessions midweek as well as working closely with the first team. His skills in photography, editing, and graphic design have noticeably improved and he also showed strong initiative, teamwork, communication, and problem-solving abilities.
Having built strong relationships across the club, Ben has also inspired other volunteers. His contributions have been invaluable, and his continued involvement is highly encouraged.
His Volunteering with ETFC stemmed from him participating in the Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) Silver Award and has resulted in realising that he has additional talents to those he already has!
Well done, Ben!
We will be avidly watching the 2025 EFL Championship play off on Saturday; following our two alumni battling it out on the pitch at Wembley.
Sydie Peck playing for Sheffield United and Romaine Mundle playing for Sunderland will be facing each other in an effort to win the match that propels their team into the Premier League!
Good luck to both of them!
A huge congratulations to Malakai who has made it into Saracens Under 16s team – what a great sporting achievement – we are always so proud to hear how well our students are doing outside of school.
Malakai is a true sportsman having already been featured in our #StudentSpotlight feature for his swimming achievements with Enfield Swim Squad.
We wish him continued success and enjoyment in the sport of rugby!

Good luck to all who are taking part!
A few lucky students from our school had the incredible opportunity to visit Baller League UK at the Copper Box Arena—a well-earned reward for their outstanding attitude to learning this past term.
Baller League UK offers a unique fusion of football and technology, bringing fans closer to the action with interactive activities through QR codes. Our students were amazed by the fast-paced matches and the innovative twists that keep the league exciting.
With football legends like Ian Wright and John Terry managing the teams, the competition was intense. One of the standout moments was experiencing the Game Changer, a thrilling feature that can completely shift the outcome of a match in the final three minutes!
This trip not only gave our students a great view for the new era of football but also sparked curiosity about the technology behind it. Who knows? In the future, we might see some of our own students on the pitch or working behind the scenes on the cutting-edge tech that makes this league so special.
Want to see the action for yourself? Catch the next matches live on Twitch every Monday up until June
