SUMMER SPORT<br />

Tennis<br />

Words by Ms Yeomans, Director of Sport and Enrichment<br />

The tennis squad have been taking on advice from the Queen’s Park tennis coach and honing their skills with Mr Benjamin<br />

during enrichment. The U14 squad remained unbeaten throughout the season, beating Portland Place and Kew House School. I<br />

commend Dylan N, Dylan B, Isla, Rixt, Edward and Molly for their enthusiasm and commitment to tennis enrichment.<br />

Athletics<br />

Mr Ricks has enthused pupils with athletics this<br />

term. A real highlight was taking 33 pupils to the<br />

ISA Athletics Competition. All pupils represented<br />

the school in a great light and showed support for<br />

each other.<br />

A massive congratulations to Max R for making it<br />

to the ISA National finals for javelin and went onto<br />

come 3rd. Considering he has only started the<br />

event this year, this makes this achievement even<br />

more impressive.<br />

Cricket<br />

All pupils have shown progress in their skills and<br />

their knowledge of the game. The U12 team have<br />

consistently worked hard during games with many<br />

now playing leather ball cricket for the first time.<br />

Year 8 and 9 cricketers representing <strong>MVS</strong><br />

I would like to mention Abby M, Libby L, Cecily H,<br />

Emma B and Sarah W from Year 10 for regularly<br />

playing in the U15A leather ball games, often against<br />

all male teams.<br />
