On a sunny Wednesday morning, the Bedford International Athletic Stadium was awash with colour with girls supporting their houses loudly. It was just wonderful to see every individual student in the Senior School taking part in at least one event.

As ever, we were witness to some sterling performances from our athletes with nine records broken: 
Gabi Asein (Year 10) Shot Put – 11.13m
Maddie Axford (Year 10) 800m – 2.27.87s and Discus – 27.60m
Eleanor Bruce (Year 11) Shot Put – 10.05m 
Elizabeth Bruce (Year 9) Shot Put – 9.72m 
Emily Dunning (Year 10) High Jump – 1.60m 
Sophie Forbes-Laird (Year 8) 200m – 26.75s 
Megan Howlett (Year 7) Javelin – 19.81 
Romina Johnson (Year 10) Long Jump – 4.91m

For the overall competition, Chanel won by 27 points, with Nightingale and Hepburn finishing second and third respectively. Chanel also won the Years 7-8 events, while Nightingale were victorious in the Years 9-10 events, and Chanel earned bragging rights in the Senior competition.

Well done to all the participants who showed great team spirit and brilliant sporting performance. Thank you to the PE Department and support staff for hosting a fantastic event.
