Last weekend, Year 7 pupils Beatrice and Jessica, along with Year 8 pupils Georgie and Tahlia, competed in the London Schools Ski Race at Welwyn, Hertfordshire.

The event saw fierce competition, with schools like Surbiton High, Reeds, New Hall, and Eltham College fielding multiple teams.

The girls performed admirably, completing both runs despite a few tumbles on the dry, sticky slope. Their determination was praised by the announcer, who highlighted their commitment to finishing the race.

In the Category 2 (Years 7 & 8) rankings, their placings were:

  • Jessica: 14th
  • Georgie: 25th
  • Beatrice: 27th
  • Tahlia: 34th

Congratulations to our four participating pupils! We eagerly anticipate hearing about their success in the upcoming England Schools Ski Qualifier (ESSKIA) on 22 September in Chatham.
