Year 10 Sports Studies trip to Lee Valley Velopark Mr Cartledge
On Tuesday March 10th the Year 10 Sports Studies group visited the Lee Valley Velopark, a London 2012 Olympic venue to take part in a BMX and Mountain bike session as part of the Outdoor Education Unit of the course. The boys had completed an assignment on planning the trip and were now being assessed in their bike handling skills in the 2 disciplines. The boys all made great progress on the day and the instructors were really impressed with their resilience in what for many were new sports. Special mention must go to K Hydara and R Hodgson who proved themselves to be talented bike handles in both disciplines. The boys are now completing an assignment evaluating the day and can be really proud of their efforts.

It was a lovely way to finish the season, and a big thank you to all the players for their fantastic effort and commitment. Well done to all!

This includes shinpads and black /yellow socks when participating in football lessons and also a pair of white sports socks for all other activities. Students will be reminded when activities change. Students not bringing the correct kit will instantly receive consequence points.
Girls should be wearing plain black shorts which are longer than the length of their PE shirt or hoody. Leggings should be black sports leggings and not see through. Black tracksuit bottoms are also permitted.
ALL jewellery should be removed prior to the start of the lesson, including earrings, and hair should be tied up.
