Rossett News Update - 23rd January 2026
Why We Need Your Support
Earlier this week, our U14 girls' football team went to a tournament at St John Fisher, travelling in our one remaining minibus. They came an impressive third place and represented Rossett brilliantly.
This is one of the many reasons why we need our minibuses, taking students to sporting fixtures and competitions. As we're now down to just one minibus, we're raising funds to replace the second, which has reached the end of its working life.
Well Done to our Year 10 Netball Team
Well done to our Year 10 girls' netball team who played against King James's School yesterday.
Not only did they secure a 9-5 win, they also received some amazing feedback from the KJS staff who said our girls were a real credit to our school. They were polite, friendly and helped to create a lovely atmosphere which was really appreciated by the KJS team, some of whom were playing in their first interschool game.
We are so proud!
