In the final week of half term, Hornsby House ran their first-ever Virtual Sports Day for years 3 to 6. Children took part in 4 events: Standing Long Jump, Wall Throws, Speed Bounce and an 800m race. Pupils were awarded house points for taking part, as well as receiving extra house points based on their scores.

Siblings in the same family participated in events as a team. Here is an example of one of our families taking part in their own version of the (in)famous obstacle course!

Lower School pupils in Reception to Year 2 were tasked with recreating the famous Lower School Obstacle Race that takes place on Sports Day every year. Here is what the PE Department had to say in response to the entries received:

We were so impressed with all the creative obstacle courses that were designed, some even included trampolines, paddling pools, sprinklers and eggs and spoons!

Well done to everyone that took part, and thank you for embracing the alternative, but highly successful, change of format this year.
