Senior School Sports Day took place on Thursday 27th June 2024 and, as always, was a team effort in the lead up to the event - from maintenance to marketing, grounds to catering and teachers, pupils and parents! It was, despite the inclement weather, an excellent day culminating in no less than 9 athletics records being beaten! 

The PE staff have worked incredibly hard this term to ensure that the pupils have had an array of athletic opportunities open to them. This hard work has clearly paid off as in the field, we saw James in Form 1 add to his ISA National Discus Championship win with an impressive throw of 23.78m, comfortably beating the previous school record. Following suit, fellow ISA National Champion Sophia in Form 4 beat her own school discus record with a throw of 16.88m. Max in Form 4 capped off an impressive Discus season with an impressive record throw of 25.90m. In Form 2 Esther saved her best Javelin throw of the season for sports day with a record distance of 19.61m while Amilia capped off a successful day by setting a new Shot putt record with a distance of 7.39m. 

On the track we were also treated to some impressive performances with Neve (Form 3) setting the tone with a new 1500m record of 6:00:24 mins along with Gabrielle - one of our short-term borders and very competent athlete - setting a new 800m record time of 2:44:68 mins. Following these, Charlie in Form 2 stepped in for Thorne at the last minute and proceeded to set a new 300m record of 53:93s. This then led us on to the relays and congratulations to the Way House U15 Female 4x100m runners who set a new school record of 1:03:72 mins.

Well done to our Victor and Victrix Lodorum in each age group:

Form 1 and 2: Amilia  and Alfie 

Form 3 and 4: Honey and Bodie 

The overall winners were Way House - congratulations!
