Both the junior and senior school were able to take to the field again after a Covid enforced break of over two years. Strict rules meant that the usual gatherings and events which, in normal times were highlights of the school calendar, had to fall by the wayside.

There was plenty to keep the pupils occupied with range of activities, including many old favourites.

Other events put a premium on balance as well as speed, with the likes of the beanbag race requiring a range of skills to be in with a chance of winning.
