  • Year 13 PE A level Trip

    Published 08/02/23

    On Friday 3 February, the Year 13 A Level PE students visited the Sport Science Labs at Canterbury Christchurch University. The students took part in a number of lab-based fitness tests, including the VO2 max and Wingate tests, as well as a range of field-based fitness tests. The students showed excellent levels of interest and enthusiasm throughout the day and enjoyed applying the knowledge they have learnt in the classroom. They were a credit to the school and impressed the university staff with their in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology. A special mention to Adam, James and Callum who really pushed themselves to complete the maximal fitness tests whilst in the labs. It was a pleasure to take this trip, and we look forward to taking the Year 12s later in the year.

    Two Weald 6th form swimmers, Matt (Y12) and Caitlin (Y13) represented the South East of England at the Luxembourg Euro Meet from 27 to 29 January.

    A great weekend of racing and the chance to experience the big atmosphere of an international swim meet with music, flashing lights and pyrotechnics!  They also got to meet 2 popular Olympic swim stars Ben Proud (GB) and Chad Le Clos (South Africa)!

    Matt’s highlight from his 3 individual races was setting a new PB in 50m breaststroke to finish 6th in Juniors; he was also part of the Mixed Medley Team who finished 9th.

    Caitlin had 4 individual races and qualified for 2 x B finals and 1 x A Final.  She loves the flashing lights and finals razzmatazz!  She also raced in the Mixed Freestyle relay and Mixed Medley relay where her team just narrowly beat Matt’s team into 8th place.
