Gymnastics County Finals
In March our year 5/6 gymnastics team represented the school and the Blaby and Harborough District at the County Finals. The standard of the competition was very high and our gymnasts had to face very strong opponents. Our girls performed brilliantly and we finished the day as bronze medallists. Well done Amelie, Emie-Rae, Natalia and Madison.
On Friday 9 November all 850 students, staff, governors and guests gathered in the sports hall for an incredibly moving remembrance assembly. Co-ordinated by Mr Smith of the English Department, the assembly was led by our Head Boy, Nathan Booker, and Head Girl, Lydia Redman, with readings from other staff and students. Music from the school orchestra with playing of the last post by two students was led by guest Paul Hings (whom you may have seen later that weekend playing The Last Post on Match of the Day).
