Sporting Highlights

We've had an incredible Michaelmas term. Students played in 500 fixtures, with nearly 80 per cent representation across all years. The hockey season in particular was outstanding, with U13, U14, U16 and U18 teams reaching county, regional or national finals. There were also individual successes in fencing, swimming, tennis, taekwondo, curling, cross country and other sports.
