Sports Day

Sports Day yesterday went very well. The weather was kind enough, at least it didn't rain, and lots of parents, relatives and friends turned out to enjoy some fantastic athletics.
 
The highlight of the morning came in the high jump. Competition was strong but in the end the winner jumped well clear and ended up equalling the school record! An outstanding echievement.
 
Over lunch the pipers played brilliantly under their new teacher. A very larger crowd of spectators showed their appreciation.
 
The afternoon was no less competitive, particularly as all events were being counted towards the overall house competition.
 
After the boys had finished their athletics it was the turn of the visitors. This is always more about the fun than the winning although as the line draws near there are some determined faces!
 
The day ended with tea on the lawn before everyone headed off for a well deserved break.
