Nicky Morris Athletics Championship

Thursday 3rd July saw the girls take on the annual Nicky Morris Challenge held at Wodson Park.  The team, made up of students from Years 7,8 & 9 competed against 7 other local schools and got off to a flying start winning the first 3 track events – Anny in the 200m Hurdles, Nia in the 100m and Yelena in the 70m Hurdles. Clearly not satisfied with her 1st win, Nia then went to triple jump and took home the gold in that too! The day was rounded off with outstanding performances from all the girls in their relays, with the Year 7 team securing the final gold of the day! This was enough to ensure the Year 7 team finished 3rd overall – a fantastic achievement.

Nia was also awarded the ‘Jane Branford award’ for breaking the 100m record on the day too. Lots more to come from this team of young ladies

Well done to all the competitors on a brilliant day of athletics; Karina, Yelena, Nia, Savannah, Evie, Isabella, Anny, Selina, Teera, Itohan, Yasmin, Kyrah-Zhane and Sofia
