Bolton-le-Sands Primary School

A big 'well done' to the school's football team who qualified to play at the Globe Arena during Morecambe's match against Tranmere Rovers in front of 2500 spectators last Saturday. At half-time the team played some lovely football in very difficult conditions and were really unlucky to lose 1-0 to Lancaster Road following a penalty.
