An unforgettable day of determination, teamwork, and healthy competition!

This year’s Sports Day was a fantastic showcase of energy, enthusiasm and sportsmanship from our youngest pupils in year three, all the way up to our experienced athletes in year 6.

The sun made an appearance as the children took to the field ready to give their best in a wide range of athletic events – and they certainly delivered!

The morning field events included shotput, javelin, discus, vortex throw, triple jump, slalom runs and the children’s favourite, the Tug-O-War! It was brilliant to see how much effort each student put into their throws, with many achieving personal bests. There was a clear sense of pride in their accomplishments and a wonderfully supportive atmosphere as peers cheered and celebrated each other’s successes.

The afternoon track events did not disappoint either. The sprinting events were a highlight – from quick bursts over 80 and 100 metres to the impressive stamina of those competing in the 200, 300, 400 and 600m races. Children pushed themselves, showing real determination and focus. The 400m and 600m races were a test of endurance in the heat, and it was inspiring to see every runner cross the finish line with grit and cheered on loudly by peers and the fantastic supportive crowd of parents and carers.

One of the most rewarding aspects of the day was the attitude of the children. From high-fives at the finish line to encouraging teammates in their events, there was a strong sense of community and support. While competition was fierce at times, it was always underpinned by fairness and encouragement.

We are incredibly proud of all our young athletes. Thank you to everyone, particularly our sports leaders, who helped to make it a success.
