Year 3 4 5 6 Athletics Club, Friday 16th and 23rd June
We were delighted to welcome eleven Bourne Grammar School students, including three old Copthillians; Elin James, Sophie Brittain and William Kong, to help us with our training at Athletics Club on Friday 16th and 23rd June.
Lead by Gemma Alcoran (our new Head of Sport in September), the Year 8, 9 and 10 BGS students demonstrated their skills as athletes, and their abilities as coaches in five events; hurdles, middle distance running, javelin, high jump and long jump.
The children rotated through all events over the course of two afternoons, and finished with an entertaining mass-relay!
What a great way to conclude a wonderful term of athletics; coached in games before half term and at club after half term, with excellent team and individual performances in sports days and two inter-school athletics matches. As we watched the children on Friday and reflected on the term, it was clear to us how much their skills have advanced ... and of course, still plenty of smiles!
