Our annual Junior School Sports Day, held at the WGSF track, saw every student participate in a fantastic day of competition. Students tackled a variety of traditional track and field events, alongside more lighthearted races like the egg and spoon, skipping, sack race, and an obstacle course.
Despite the very hot and sunny weather, students were well prepared with caps and sun cream, and stayed hydrated thanks to our refill stations. The heat certainly didn’t dampen their spirits or their performance, with everyone competing to a high standard.
A new Sports Day record was set by Mollie in Year 3, who impressively shaved over a second off the 400 metre record! In total, 31 different students across the four year groups proudly took home gold medals and a cup. Following previous year’s popular sustainable wooden medals, updated designs were awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, along with stickers and cups for all event winners.
The day concluded with the much-anticipated House relay. After tallying points from both the individual year group relays and the mixed year relay, an incredible outcome emerged: a three-way tie for the House relay between Clayton, Mackie, and Lee, all scoring 18 points!
