SCD win County League Finals

At the end of the best ever season for athletics at St Clement Danes, students headed to the County League Finals at Dacorum Athletics Track, Jarman Park, Hemel Hempstead on Tuesday 5th July. Three out of the four teams had already topped their Area League earlier in the term and Tuesday saw the students battling it out against the very best schools in Hertfordshire. The Under 14 Girls and Under 14 Boys teams were crowned County League Final winners and the Under 16 Girls were only narrowly beaten into second place. The Under 16 Boys also finished strongly, placing as the sixth best team in Hertfordshire.

Congratulations to all the teams on their well-deserved success and to all the individual students who have performed consistently well throughout a long and gruelling season!

Year 8 Swimmers Make Waves at County Championships

We are delighted to announce that two of our Year 8 pupils, Sam C and Grace F, have achieved significant success in the pool, qualifying for and competing at the prestigious County Swimming Championships. Qualification for Counties is a major milestone in the swimming world. To be eligible, swimmers must achieve strict published qualifying times and rank within the top 25 competitors in their age group across the entire county. Both students have demonstrated exceptional talent to reach this elite standard. Sam has secured his place in an incredible variety of events, demonstrating his versatility across both sprints and long-distance endurance races. Representing Berkhamsted Swim Club, Sam will be competing at the Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre in St Albans throughout January. His comprehensive schedule includes: Freestyle: 50m, 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, and 1500m Butterfly: 50m, 100m, and 200m Individual Medley: 100m, 200m, and 400m Matching this high standard of performance is Grace F, who represents the U13 age group. Grace has already secured a fantastic 9th place ranking in the county for the 100m breaststroke. Beyond this individual success, Grace is a dedicated member of Ricky Swim Club and a vital part of the SCD team, regularly representing the school in the Herts League. Reaching this level requires a sustained and high level of commitment. Over the past eight months, both swimmers have balanced intense training schedules and regular licensed galas alongside their academic studies. Their success is a testament not only to their athletic ability but also to their discipline and excellent time management. Please join us in congratulating Grace on her top10 ranking and wis
