Following on from their success in the Lewisham athletics championships, our athletes have also now triumphed at the London Schools and Kent championships, including breaking a 30-year long jump record.
In the London games, Isabella Hilditch became a double London Schools Champion, not only winning the long jump but also the hurdles with a personal best time of 11.5 seconds – a national English Schools standard. Ally Housley came 2nd in the javelin with a throw of 22.48m.
Isabella then went on to win the Kent Championships (U15) long jump in style, surpassing a 30-year record by some 11cm.
