Last term saw Middle School pupils enjoy Sports Day in glorious sunshine.
Assistant Director of Sport – Boys Mr Trefon Vandoros said, “It was a day to impress, and it was a day they impressed! What weather to do it in too! Having missed Sports Day last year, the Houses made a momentous effort to give their all on the track and in the field. Not just athletes, but cricketers, hockey players and netballers alike, took to the field and flew, threw and blew away the chains of lockdown. It was a day to forget results, run as they have never run before, feel the wind rush past, feel the fight for the finish or just celebrate success with their teammates, friends and even foes. The House Spirit was palpable, and the enthusiasm on display drove many to achieve personal bests. Well done Oakham, good to be back!”
Many congratulations to all the participants, and a big thank-you to those who helped make the day so memorable. To see more images, please visit the Sports Day Gallery.
