Mini World Cup at PHS

S1 Pupils at Perth High School took part in a mini World Cup Touch Tournament on Tuesday afternoon.

This was a culmination of a 7 week block with three classes in PHS delivered by Perthshire Rugby Development Team. The DT have had a great time coaching the PHS pupils and want to thank Miss Taylor, Mr Hunt and Mr Dougan for their support during the block and in organising the grand finale!

A big well done to all the S1 pupils who took part on Tuesday afternoon. It was a fantastic afternoon of rugby with all teams working extremely hard for their respective Houses.

The festival winners were ARGENTINA (Kinfauns Team), consisting of: (Noah, Daniel B, Natalie, Lara, Demid, Christi and Leah) - so a big congratulations to them. Runners up were USA.

The overall House results were as follows:
1st – Huntingtower (51 points) 2nd – Kinfauns (44 points) 3rd – Elcho (38 points)
A big thank you to the helpers who were: Jack High, Alasdair Nisbet, Georgia Scott and Ewen McDonald.

Throughout the block the pupils have had lots of fun and improved their rugby skills hugely. We hope they will stay involved in the game and join Mr Hunt for School training on Thursdays after school as well as make their way over to join Perthshire RFC (boys) and the P&K Mud-Sharks (girls) as a result.
