Welcome back to the new academic year in PE. Just a reminder to please ensure your child has a pair of plastic studded boots, a gum shield and shin pads for the new term and they bring them to PE lessons.

There is no rugby training this Saturday due to Open Day. All lunchtime and after school sports clubs start from Monday. The final sports club timetable can be found as an attachment to this article.

Moving onto sporting fixtures, the cross country season is already well underway. Well done to the Year 7 students who took part in the district MOB race on Tuesday. Stand out performances from Freddie S and Violet S who both finished 9th in their respective races. Similarly, there was a great effort from our cross country team at Townsend School on Thursday. Some fantastic performances across all age groups, but in particular, Luca W and Thomas B finished 3rd and 7th in the Junior Boys group. Thank you very much to Miss Mountford for her hard work in supporting the organisation of these two fixtures.
