Some personal and season bests at Radley
On Thursday 18th May, we took teams from Years 5, 6, 7 & 8 to compete in the annual Prep School Athletics meet held at Radley. There were about a dozen Prep Schools from the surrounding area and the standard was incredibly high. Although there was no silverware for our teams there were a lot of remarkable individual performances, including a few season and personal bests, perhaps most noticeably, from James C, our very own Bolt. According to the timings on the day, James beat the National Schools record for U13 boys but sadly it's not official. Tom L, from Year 6 also got a personal best in the 1500m and was absolutely delighted. Rumour has it that a girls U12 teams beat all the boys U12 teams in the 4x100m relay - very impressive and, as there's proof on twitter, it must be true!
