Tuesday’s trip to Wimbledon 2025 was an unforgettable adventure for our Junior School students. The sun was shining, the weather was warm, and the excitement was high from the moment we stepped off the train.
There were some incredible matches to watch. Livvy said, “My favourite part of Wimbledon 2025 was watching Ben Shelton vs Alex Bolt battle to see who won on Court 2. Shelton won and one of his powerful shots nearly hit the umpire! It was a close miss!”
Lots of students loved seeing the British players in action too. Evie told us, “I had the best experience – I enjoyed watching the British players on Court 12 (Dan Evans and Jay Clark),” and Lauren added, “We had the best time! I enjoyed watching the players battle it out on Court 12! I think we even made it on TV!”
Even though the queue for strawberries and cream was a bit too long, that didn’t spoil the fun. Imogen said, “Today was a once in a lifetime opportunity – unfortunately the queue for strawberries and cream was too long but we did get to spend time in the shop buying souvenirs!”
There were so many “wow” moments throughout the day. Layla said, “My Wimbledon 2025 experience was one of the best times I’ve ever had! One of the serves was 147mph! The players hit the balls so hard!”
Some of the highlights weren’t even on court – just being at Wimbledon was magical. Amelia said, “Today was a dream come true – we saw amazing players in the most beautiful place – the flowers were very nice! This trip was totally unforgettable.”
Travelling with friends made the day even more special. Poppy said, “Today was a day like no other. Getting on the train and the tube with my friends was a very special experience. We watched world-class tennis and made memories to last a lifetime.”
And Edith summed it all up perfectly: “My dream day at Wimbledon. The atmosphere was like nothing I’d ever experienced – the crowds were ecstatic, the players were inspirational, the silence, the hawk-eye, clapping – I enjoyed every moment.”
A warm, sunny day at one of the world’s most famous sporting events – what more could we ask for? It’s safe to say Wimbledon 2025 will be a day we’ll never forget!
