This week, a team of Key Stage 2 pupils proudly represented Margaret Wix at the St Albans District Sports Athletics Competition.

There were some fantastic individual performances, including victories in the girls’ throwing event and the Year 6 boys’ 100m sprint, as well as an impressive second-place finish in the girls’ long jump. We were also delighted to see seven of our athletes qualify for the sprint finals in their respective year groups – a fantastic achievement in such a competitive event. There were several other strong performances too, including a couple of agonisingly close fourth-place finishes in the girls’ long jump and throwing events.

Most importantly, every child demonstrated outstanding self-belief and resilience, giving their best in each event and supporting one another throughout. As always, we were incredibly proud of their behaviour, sportsmanship and the way they represented our school.

Well done to all of our athletes on a fantastic District Sports campaign!
