A Sunshine-Filled Celebration of Sport and Spirit

04 July 2025

Senior Sports Day was a sun-soaked success, filled with friendly competition, laughter, and unforgettable House spirit. Held on the school fields, the event saw students give their all in a range of athletic challenges, with every House determined to take home the title.

There were plenty of standout moments throughout the day. St David’s stormed to victory in both the Year 8 and Year 9 relay races, while Eva M in Year 10 wowed the crowd with a huge 19.5m throw in the discus competition – an incredible achievement! The staff even took on the students for a friendly match of Tug Of War, the winners still up for debate!

While the overall winning House will be revealed in next week’s assembly, every girl showed determination, teamwork and resilience – qualities we value just as highly as medals. As always, we were inspired by the camaraderie on display with girls cheering each other on, celebrating effort as much as achievement, and creating an atmosphere of true sportsmanship.

An ice cream truck provided the perfect cool-down after a day of activity in the summer heat, adding a sweet touch to a fantastic afternoon.

Well done to all who competed, and to those who proudly supported their friends from the sidelines.
