Athletics

Athletics at Dauntseys’ on Saturday was an excellent event. Lots of pupils across all the ages performed very well, however, the highlight must be the amazing senior boys relay team, who beat lots of major schools to finish a strong second!! The junior girls also came second on the day, despite a minor setback. Well done to everyone.
