Everybody needs a challenge in her life and the PE department provided just that when we asked all our students to see how fast they could run a mile. Training took place during a number of PE classes with many of the students glowing at the end of each session. This was more difficult for some and we are particularly proud of those students who pushed themselves to the very end. Everybody did extremely well and all received an Aviva Mile Challenge Wrist band which ranged from purple to red. A very high proportion of students received a red band which required them to complete the mile in Under 8 minutes but to receive any colour was an achievement. We hope that this will be an annual event in the school where students will aim to maintain or improve their personal best.
