School teams have again worked hard throughout the season with some good results. The volh ball team has won its first three matches against Sedgley Park College at home and away, and Burnley Ladies at home. In the final of the North West area tournament the team was beaten by a strong Kirkby team containing several British International players.

Jillian Rothwell became the first member of our table-tennis team to win one of the St. Helens and District Table-tennis League's tournaments when she won the Ladies handicap event.

Members of gym club have been working for the British Amateur Gymnastics Association awards and seven girls have now gained the grade 1 award.

Clubs held during the year include volleyball, swimming, athletics, table-tennis, gymnastics and basketball.
The rail dispute necessitated a late change to coach transport for the annual trip to Wembley for the hockey international. However, it was an enjoyable day despite the 2-1 defeat of the English team by Ireland.
