Wednesday concluded the athletics season with our final County meet at Stevenage. In a similar vein to previous meets, all students conducted themselves fantastically well. Miss Mountford and Mr Alexander are very proud of all students who have committed and improved week after week. Lots of the students have tried new events and run, jumped and thrown some impressive times and distances.

Well done to Daniel W, Liam S-B, Aaron N and Theo B in Year 9 stepping into events with guts and determination, as well as Mia and Thea in Year 10 for rushing from work experience to participate well too!

Some other stand-out performances included:

🥇Lucy (800m), Harry (300m)

🥈Belle (1500m), Darci (200m)

🥉 Bailey (100m), Lucy (High Jump), Jessica (300m), Darci (Long Jump), Ali (Hurdles and Triple Jump)

As well as this, a number of students had an excellent day at the Hertfordshire Schools County Championships last Saturday. On a sweltering day, these were some of the highlights🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️:

Darci M finishing 6th in the U15 Girls 300m despite being a year young

Frankie M finishing 3rd in the U13 Boys 800m

Ethan McD finishing 4th in the U13 Boys 800M

Ethan H finishing 4th in the U13 Boys 200m

Finally, good luck to Isobel J and Miss Mountford in their game representing Hertfordshire against Kent in the SEESFA U14 Girls’ Final 2022/23 at Hemel Hempstead Town FC on Saturday!
