Piggott Sports Days
Published 28/06/21School Sports Day, typically the day that the whole school comes together to compete for house victory, is one of the most exciting and memorable days on the school calendar. On Sports Day students work together, encourage and support each other, challenge themselves, step outside their comfort zone and discover hidden talents. Whatever your ability, there is a role to play for every student on Sports Day.
With the recent announcement from No.10 that school sports days can go ahead within bubbles, we have planned (subject to weather) sports days on the following days. Unfortunately we cannot welcome spectators to the event but be sure to ask your children how they got on!
Year 7 students on Wednesday 30th June
Year 8 students on Tuesday 13th July
Year 9 students on Friday 2nd July
Year 10 students on Thursday 1st July
