A vast number of pupils in the Prep School took part in Athletics this term. There were three outings, a friendly afterschool fixture at the Judd School in Tonbridge, the IAPS Athletics Championships at the Julie Rose Stadium in Ashford and the District Athletics Championships at Medway Park. 

Absolutely everyone that competed surpassed our expectations performing to the very best of their abilities. Elise A (8M) who won the Under 14 Girls Triple Jump travelled to Birmingham yesterday to represent Kent in the National competition jumping 8m40. She was placed 14 out of 20 competitors. This is an astonishing achievement as Elise had learnt how to do the triple jump only a few weeks ago. The future is bright as she now endeavours to join an athletics club.
