On Monday, a team of 47 pupils from Years 7, 8, Remove, and L5 took part in the Medway District Athletics Competition at Medway Park.

This fantastic event brought together schools from across Medway, and our pupils performed exceptionally well – even in the heat. The King’s team came away with an impressive medal count: two golds, two silvers, and four bronzes.

Many students achieved personal best times and distances, showing great determination and commitment. A special mention goes to Ava, who won gold in the 100m, and to Matilda, who secured gold in the javelin.

Congratulations to the whole team for their hard work and excellent performances.
