SPORTS DAY



There’s something eternal about a British sports day, especially under the wide, storybook sky of a summer afternoon at LWC and nestled under the acid-green and bluebell-laden hillside of Sheephouse Copse shimmering in the distance.
The sun tilts just so, catching on house colours, fluttering tents, and the gleam of hopeful medals yet to be won. The grass is freshly mown, rich with the scent of summer and childhood, and the lines on the track - now robotically immaculate - still carry the charm of a chalky human wobble in memory.
Here, competition isn’t cruel, it’s celebratory. A kind of joyful test of nerve, grit, and cunningly rearranged team sheets by house captains and Houseparents.
And while the action unfolds on the field, take a moment to flip to the pupil records at the back of the programme. So many names, personal bests, near misses, quiet triumphs - every number carries a story. A race run in borrowed shoes, a high jump that finally clicked, a throw that surprised even the thrower. This is where the legacy lives.
Sports Day is more than a school tradition. It’s a rite of passage. Under that perfect sky, we ran not just for points, but for pride, for memory, for the sheer, unfiltered joy of it all. And that’s why we remember. Every year. Forever. Just remember to bring your trainers...
