Swimming

Amazing efforts from all the girls in the swimming gala against Haileybury last week. It was a really close competition with several girls swimming against girls in older year groups and overall we just lost to Haileybury 77-70 points! An extra well done to the Year 7’s who, between them, won every single one of their races!

Showjumping

Ruby Barrs (Year 8) recently competed in showjumping competitions and had great results throughout the week on both ponies but especially on the final Sunday when they finished in 3rd place in the Grand Prix class, a huge class, the biggest they had ever done to date. By coming 3rd, they have qualified for Liverpool International Horse Show being held on 30th December. Only 24 competitors qualify for this out of all 12-14 year olds throughout the country, so this is a major achievement for them. Congratulations Ruby and good luck on the 30th December!

Foil Fencing

Last weekend, Amelia Middleton (Year 12) was selected to represent Great Britain U17 in a two day International Foil Fencing competition in Budapest. She won 4 out of 6 and qualified for the direct eliminations. Well done Amelia!
