From agility and balance to speed and strength, the boys demonstrated their impressive skills in both individual and team events. The Pre-Prep pupils delighted the audience with their enthusiasm and energy, participating in fun races and activities designed to develop their coordination and teamwork. The Years 3 and 4 boys took on more challenging events, displaying their growing athletic abilities and a strong sense of fair play whilst the oldest year groups, Years 5 and 6, competed fiercely showing advanced skills and a deep understanding of the importance of perseverance and resilience.
