Davenant Sport and Health

The honour of being the Inter‐house rugby champions was also a strongly fought tournament with an abundance of boys arriving throughout the day to represent their House and year group. The winners of the Year 9 was Gillingham with 4 points closely followed by Salisbury 3 points and Whitechapel coming in third with just 1 point. The fortunes completely reversed when the Year 8 took to the field ‐ Whitechapel came out as the winners with 4 points, again Salisbury were in second place and it was the turn of Gillingham to be third. All to play for when the Year 7s arrived and they didn’t let the side down as their matches were lively, ghtly fought affairs with two of the games finishing in draws. However, it was Gillingham that managed to get the one match win advantage to take the year 7 tle, which then gave them the overall House Championship for 2023. Just as they had done for the en re day, Salisbury finished in second place with Whitechapel coming in 3rd.

The Schools Sports Partnership organised two Aqua Splash SEND events hosted by Davenant and once again our fantas c leaders had the opportunity to shine. Six of our finest leaders, R Barnard, M Bentley, L Blake, N Phillips, S Marx and L Adams assisted the visi ng primary pupils taking part in the first event and Mrs Wogan said they were amazing, so intui ve and helpful enabling all par cipants to really enjoy the experience. They are all so highly skilled they were able to engage with pupils that needed extra help both in and out of the pool.

The second event saw the same level of ability and commitment from the Davenant Leaders J Anderson, C Ashley, W Lewin, E Locke , A Hau, R Barnard and L Blake with highly posi ve comments coming from all visi ng schools. They are so caring and suppor ve ensuring everyone can par cipate in the pool and have a fun me.

We are so proud of our Leaders!
