Easington Academy took part in the first ever North East Learning Trust (NELT) games before half term alongside other schools in the Trust including: Ashington School, Bedlington School, Teesdale School and The Academy at Shotton Hall.
The games involved football competitions for Year 7 and 8 boys and netball competitions for Year 7 and 8 girls. The Year 7 and 8 girls teams played outstanding on the day winning all of their games and were therefore crowned NELT games champions.
The Year 8 boys football team finished third in their group and were eliminated in the semi final by eventual winners Teesdale.
The Year 7 boys football team finished top of their group and faced The Academy at Shotton Hall in an extremely tight final which ended 0-0 and went to penalties. The boys were ice cool and managed to score all of their penalties winning 5-4 in a tense shoot out.
Well done to everyone who took part!
