Basketball Pizza Party Celebration

Our basketball team recently won the White B Conference as part of the West Lothian Wolves Primary School league.

Our basketball team was a new addition to the school this year. These children give up their lunch times, after school and Friday afternoons to train and attend league games.

We are very proud of their perseverance, determination and grit in order to win their league.

To recognise this huge achievement, today we treated them to a pizza party! They enjoyed pizza, team chat and watching some NBA games.

A big thank you to their Coach, Mrs Hamilton who has been an inspirational and motivational coach for our team, and also to the children’s families for supporting them by taking them to the games.

Best of luck for your games on Friday!
