Year 10 Core PE Athletics Mr Cartledge
Over the 6 weeks the Year 10 Boys PE groups have been taking part in Team Athletics competitions in lessons. The Friday period 1 class has seen a fantastic effort by all students with all 5 teams scoring scoring over 650 points across the 10 event competition. Students have competed in a series of track and field events with all students contributing towards their overall team score. After a really competitive final week Team 4 featuring Rian N, Eoin H, Leo B, Suvarnan T, Nathaniel H and Caden L came out on top with a core of 743 points – a great team effort. The students were also competing in the individual competition which was eventually won by Tammar A with a massive 217 points. He was closely followed by Arthur Y (190 pts), Patryk P (190 pts), Suvarnan T (189 pts), Joseph W (183 pts) and Jayden L (182 pts). Well done to all the boys for a fantastic athletics event.
Alumni Volleyball Mr Cartledge
On Friday 6th June we welcomed 3 former students, Cameron, Vysnavan and Kavya who brought in their outside volleyball team for a match against the Year 10 development volleyball squad. The year 10 boys have been practicing hard over the last year showing great progress in a club they have set up and run themselves. It was a fantastic evening of volleyball played in great spirit with all the boys enjoying the opportunity to play some competitive volleyball. Special mention to Rahat R who organised the event to support his assessment for his Sports studies course.
PE kit
It is essential that students have the full correct PE kit for all lessons. 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.
