On Tuesday 8th July, Meadowhead’s distinctive and extensive Sports Day took over the our site and it again proved a highlight of the academic year.

Around one thousand Meadowhead students took part: each competing in three sports during the day looking to score points for their house - Brearley Furnaces, Sharman Rockets, Douglass North Stars and Pearson Falcons.

The day began with the customary banner parade accompanied by a broadcast from Mr Knowles on Phoenix FM. Some of the banners carried aloft in the parade this year were simply outstanding. The winning house was announced in a special virtual assembly on Thursday 16th July: Douglass North Stars were presented with the Sports Day Cup for the third time in four years!

Thanks to our Health, Fitness and Wellbeing teachers and the rest of the Meadowhead staff for their help putting the day together and well done to our students for the exemplary behaviour and attitudes that were on display.
