A huge congratulations to our Year 7 Basketball team, who played their very first fixture yesterday against Reigate School and came away with a fantastic win! The final score was 20–8, a brilliant result and a true reflection of the dedication and effort the team has put in since the start of term. Their hard work in training has clearly paid off, and they should all be incredibly proud of themselves. Well done, team! 👏🎉🏀
