  • Professional athlete - Aidan Syers

    Fri 03 Feb 2023 Miss I Knowles

    Today, we have been fortunate to have Aidan Syers come into school. 

    Aidan Syers is an experienced Team England & Team GB 100m sprinter, who has recorded some of the fastest times in UK history. As a youth, he was recognized as Britain’s fastest school-boy, he has since become a junior champion and international medalist. He regularly receives outstanding feedback for his inspirational qualities and is highly involved in mentorship for developing young athletes.

    We started the day with an assembly where he answered questions about his journey and his inspiration. There were some fantastic questions asked and he talked all about his commitment and determination as an athlete. 

    After his assembly he worked with year 4 and 5 to encourage and inspire. He was able to share all of the highs and lows of what it is like to be an athlete. 

  • Boys football vs St Bede's

    Wed 25 Jan 2023 Miss I Knowles

    Today the boys had their first league game! They played fantastically with strong determination and resilience. The boys managed to keep 2 clean sheets out of the 4 games we played. If we can keep this up, we will do very well in the league! 

    This was also our first match in our lovely new kit and it made such a difference! 

    Players of the match will be announced in assembly on Friday. 

    A big thank you to any supporters who came to watch, it was a very cold and foggy game!

    Well done boys - you made Merton very proud!
