ESFA Success for Year 9 Boys

We would like to congratulate our Year 9 boys after a fine season, reaching the last 8 of the National Cup and the sem-finals of the County Cup.

The Year 9s produced one of the finest runs in the National Football competition the school has ever seen with 7 wins, falling at the 8th hurdle with defeat to a very strong Cleeve School in Cheltenham.

The boys have shown great effort and resilience with 4 victories coming from goals down, 4 of which came from winners in the last minute! Including a win over last year's National Champions, Shenfield High.

Their County Cup run included wins over Hemel, Haileybury Turnford, John Henry Newman, Freman College.

The squad has been Tommy F, Jack M, Tommy A, captain - Dylan E, Harry H, Harry L, Joseph W, Thomas W, Rory O'D, Leighton E, Myles B, James H, Sam L, Alfie Y, Ollie J & Oliver M.

We would also like to congratulate the 9B team who have also played so well competing against some A teams in the District League competition. Finally a huge thanks to Mr Garvey and Mr Brown for their support this year for all these boys.

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
