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 />
