Sports Day 2025!
We had an amazing day last Friday when the whole school enjoyed a dry and sunny sports day. The weather was kind as not too hot, and not a drop of rain in sight.
The team selection was complete. House colours were in full force and the competition was gaining traction. It was a delight to see each house embrace the competition and appreciate those who were competing on the day. There were students who were determined to win, but many who simply enjoyed the competition and earned precious points for their tutor group and houses.
A special mention must go to three students who broke the school record:
In Year 10, Poppy Ward broke the Triple Jump record by 9 cm, jumping 9.25m.
In Year 12, Lewis Thorne broke the Javelin record by over 10m. Throwing 28.03m
And finally, Jacob Colligan who broke two school records. He was able to Triple jump 9.02m, breaking the previous record by 32 cm. He was also able to complete the 800m race in 2m15sec. This smashed the previous record by close to 30 seconds which is an unbelievable performance.
Here are the results for each year group:
