SJB had another sport visitor today. This time from the world of rugby league. Will Maher (Mr Maher’s brother) visited during the afternoon to explain how he progressed through junior leagues to become a professional player.

He made sure to point out to the whole school that there were difficulties along the way but a positive attitude and strong friendships were key for him.

Year 5 and 6 had a 35 minute session with Will. This will be particularly useful for them as we hope to match the success we had last year at the rugby tournaments.

Year 3 and 4 also went out to practice rugby drills and we will be persuading Will to visit again for the younger children.
