The King’s Athletics team enjoyed a fantastic day in the sunshine at the Julie Rose Stadium in Ashford on Friday 13th June.

Athletics is an individual sport, and every one of our pupils should feel extremely proud of their achievements. We witnessed a plethora of P.B’s throughout the day.

Before the nationals, our athletes will also be competing at the Medway District Championships at Medway Park on Monday 30th June. We wish them the very best of luck for another successful day on the track and field!
