Athletics
It has been another successful week for LEH sport, with students delivering outstanding performances in both athletics and golf.
On Monday, the Intermediate Girls athletics team travelled to Woodside Stadium in Watford to compete in the prestigious Track and Field Cup A Final. The event brought together some of the strongest school athletes in the region, creating a highly competitive environment and providing an exciting challenge for all involved.
Each athlete competed in both a track and a field event, contributing valuable points towards the team’s overall score. The standard of competition was exceptionally high, pushing every competitor to perform at their very best. Throughout the day, the LEH athletes demonstrated determination, resilience and team spirit, supporting one another while striving for personal and team success.
Special congratulations go to Maya and Esme, who each achieved an impressive 23 points in their respective events, the High Jump and 800m. Their performances were among the highlights of the day and reflected the hard work and commitment shown throughout the season. The final provided a fitting conclusion to an excellent athletics campaign, and all members of the team should be proud of their achievements.
