Super Sports Day!
St Edward’s annual Sports Day took place last Thursday, the hottest day of the year, and the whole school arrived at Palmer Park ready to show off their sporting talents. Everyone took part with great sportsmanship, from the Pre-Reception boys competing for the first time and concentrating very hard for the Egg and Spoon race, to the Year 6s flying over the High Jump. Every boy helped contribute points for their House, and winners of the House Cup this year were St Patrick’s!
At St Edward’s we celebrate the success of every boy, whatever their placing. Sports Day is an occasion where some boys will shine, and we heartily congratulate their wins. For some, it will have taken real courage to compete alongside the ‘sporty boys’ and in front of a large crowd. Well done to all the boys. They tried hard and should be proud of all that they achieved. Most important of all, they had fun!
Thank you to the wonderfully supportive parents and family members, who cheered and encouraged every child, and big thanks to everyone who helped with the running of such a happy and successful day.
