Ark Alexandra Academy was proud to host the Hastings & Rother Primary Town Sports on Wednesday 17 June at the William Parker athletics track, welcoming students from 17 primary schools across the area.
Fifteen Year 10 Sports Leaders from the academy's GCSE PE classes were selected to help deliver the event, taking on key responsibilities throughout the day. Working independently, they led events including the Vortex Throw, Chest Push, Discus and Long Jump, ensuring the competition ran smoothly and successfully.
The Sports Leaders demonstrated impressive professionalism, enthusiasm and maturity, taking on roles such as coaching, officiating, measuring performances and recording results. One of the highlights of the day was presenting medals to the successful competitors at the end of each event.
Their dedication and positive attitude drew praise from visiting staff, parents and organisers, who commended the students for the high standard of support they provided.
Ark Alexandra would like to congratulate all the medal winners from the seventeen schools that took part and thank Sean Ray for selecting the academy as host venue for the event.
This was the thirteenth primary sports event hosted by Ark Alexandra this year, showcasing the continued commitment and outstanding contribution of the academy's Sports Leaders.
The academy would like to thank every student who has supported these events throughout the year. Their hard work, leadership and commitment have played a vital role in making each event a success and they are a credit to the school community.
