Fantasy Football

Think you're more marvellous than Moyes? Believe you're better than Benitez? Reckon you're cleverer than Arsene the Professor?

Well now's your chance to pit your wits against fellow Heygreensters to settle once and for all who has the biggest football brain in Wavertree.

Here's what to do:

1. Make sure you have a working email address that you can access at home or in school.
2. Go to http://fantasy.premierleague.com/.
3. Sign up (ask one of your old people if you need help).
4. Create your team name, kit and pick the players you want to spend £100 million on (TIP: You can use auto-select if you like, you just won't get a great team).
5. Once you have done this, go to LEAGUES and JOIN PRIVATE LEAGUE. Enter the code below in the correct box and you will join the league for Heygreen Primary.

177161-47112

Now stand back and watch as Murphy's Mob run away with the league title!

*PLEASE NOTE: This league is for Heygreen Primary pupils and staff only. People joining who are not in this school will be ruthlessly booted out by Mr. Murphy.

The Second Podcast

This time the recordings were done in Podcast Club; they are all (apart from the odd hint or tip) the children's own work, right down to the finer production details. The only thing I have done is upload them to the internet (if it works that is!), so well played the kids.

For this month we will have another vote. There are two podcasts, so have a listen and vote for your favourite. Ask friends and family to vote too. There'll be another book token in it for the winner.
