Headmaster's Remarks

It is my great honour to have been appointed as the new Headmaster of Tynwald Primary School, with effect from the beginning of the second term. This is a momentous year for Tynwald because the school has been operating for 21 years since it's inception. As we re-engage with parents, alumni and other stakeholders after prolonged periods of lockdown, our hope is that this year, our coming of age, will be an exciting, beneficial and meaningful year to all concerned.
My hope and desire is to drive the school forward in a meaningful way that will have a lasting impact on all our children who pass through these fine walls of learning, united under loving Christian values as a single family.
I live you with our rallying cry:

"We are Tynwald, home of the Foxes.

Results
A wonderful relationship has developed between the Tynwald Foxes and Hillcrest Primary School in Mutare and we thank the Headmaster, Mr Ryan Vickery, for his kindness and hospitality in hosting our 2 sets of pupils who travelled to Hillcrest on 16 September and 30 September respectively. The First Team Cricket, composed mainly of Grade 6 pupils, performed admirably in losing narrowly to Hillcrest, with some commendable individual performances both with bat and ball as well as on the field. The same can be said of the hereto previously undefeated netball team which fielded mostly Grade 6 pupils. The Foxes went down by 3 goals to 7 on Friday before completely turning that result around on Saturday with a totally convincing 8 goals to 2 victory on Saturday. Although the girls tennis first team lost overall in their head-to-head contest, the first team boys were undefeated in all their matches, so the tennis team won the competition overall by 6 matches to 4.
In other competition, the cricket first team and the colts team narrowly lost and drew their respective matches against Mubeena Ebrahim Primary School, whilst recording commanding victories against Maranatha Junior School. The boys basketball teams also recorded narrow victories against Kirkman Primary School. The tennis teams also recorded good wins against the same opposition. The first team cricket also performed admirably in the Ariel Shumba 10/10 Cricket Tournament, losing by the narrow margin of 2 runs against Twin Rivers in the opening match before going down gamely against Hellenic and hosts Ariel. For their fine efforts, the team was awarded the Shumba Cub Participation Trophy.
