Sports Day 2020: Camaraderie and Competition in Lockdown

The results have been verified and counted. During a special Sports Day award ceremony Angles were unveiled as winners for Lower School, and Saxons the victors for Upper School.  

Sports Day is one of the annual highlights of the Eversfield house system that brings together the whole school community. Mr Sliney was determined that the global pandemic and national school closures would not prevent Eversfield continuing its long-held school tradition of competing for the coveted house cups.

Across 6 specially adapted events, children had to make 3 attempts of the sporting challenges and report their best time or distance. The results were combined, and mean averages calculated, to establish the winning house for Lower School and Upper School.

Mr Poultney was of course rooting for Angles and was delighted to see them clinch the Lower School Cup, while it was Mr Hastings who celebrated with Saxons on their consecutive year victory for Upper School House Sports Day Cup.
