Sports Week

Well what can we say… Sports Week has been a huge success! Over 1500 students have taken part in over 60 events and sporting activities throughout the week.

From Athletics to Tchouckball our wonderful students and staff have fully embraced the week and been keen to participate in as many activities as possible. The range of activities has also meant that we have had some highly competitive competitions. The plan is to continue this festival of sport again next year culminating in the Withdean Athletics on the penultimate day of school.

The results include events that have happened throughout the year. So all points from inter-house sports, sports week and sports day at Withdean have been accumulated to award the Addis Shield, in memory of Sue Addis a great friend and supporter of the PE department.
