The event involved students from Years 7 to 10 in a programme of inclusive and competitive sporting activities designed to promote participation and encourage teamwork.

Supported by staff, tutors, and the PE Department, the day featured a rotation of events organised by year group and held at various locations across the school site.

In the morning, Year 7 and 8 students participated in football, Panathlon, table tennis, and a dance workshop. At the same time, Years 9 and 10 took part in a fun run and a series of retro races, including the egg and spoon race and the sack race. After break, the groups rotated to ensure all students engaged in both sets of activities.

Afternoon activities included athletics for Years 7 and 8, with events such as the 100m, 200m, 400m, and relay races. Year 9 and 10 students competed in a tug of war, with teams of eight working together to earn points in a contest of strength.

The final event of the day brought all year groups together in the North Yard for the ever-popular Tutor Challenge, which put the tutors at the front and centre of the action. This was followed by a closing ceremony, during which the successes of the day were celebrated.

All events were structured to ensure broad participation. Football was played in a timed, round-robin format with rolling substitutions; Panathlon encouraged non-competitive, inclusive engagement in multiple activities; dance sessions were led by a professional instructor; and table tennis was played as timed doubles matches. Each event focussed on sportsmanship, teamwork, and active involvement.

A tuck shop operated throughout the day, offering sweets, drinks, and ice creams. All proceeds will go towards supporting the 2026 Year 11 Prom,

As always, the event was a resounding success and a perfect whole-school activity to celebrate the end of term.
