We were delighted to host our annual Sports Celebration Event on Tuesday 6 May. With many students in attendance from Year 3 to Year 13. Our Sports Captains did an amazing job of reading out their round ups of the sporting year and Holly and Sophia (Year 9) performed some superb dance routines. Angelie B (Year 7) inspired us with a snippet of her Scholars Celebration speech speaking about how sport builds character and the value of team work.
We were joined by Northampton Town Football Club Player – Bianca Luttman who gave an inspiring speech about her journey in football and also the importance of team work and collaboration. Mrs Blake introduced a new initiative aimed at our high achieving students called the Athlete Development Programme, which is an exciting opportunity for players to work collaboratively with teachers and parents to develop their understanding of elite sport and work together to advance their skills.
The evening ended with a selection of awards being presented including our highly prestigious Headmistress Award which hadn’t had a recipient since 2022, this year being awarded to Harriet F (Year 13). Our Junior School Team of the Year was won by the U11 Netball team. Our Senior School Team of the Year was won by the 1st XI Hockey team. Our Junior School Sports Personality of the Year was won by Evie H (Year 6) and the Senior School Sports Personality of the Year was won by Issy H (Year 13).
Thank you to all of the players and parents who supported the event and congratulations to those who received an award.
Mrs Blake
Director of Sport
