Sports Day 2017
Llantwit Major School recently held its annual sports day.
Once again the weather was kind to us and the day ran smoothly with pupils from Years 7-10 enjoying a fun packed day of athletic events. Pupils were split into two teams for the day and either were competing for their school house or ‘Team Army’ or Team Navy’. It was a very close competition this year with the Hywel and Navy teams sneaking the victory with success in the final relays of the day.
There were some outstanding performances on the day from Finn Jennings and Katie Sims (Yr.7), Amelia Chappell (Yr.8) Kirsty Law (Yr 9) and Nathan Pownall (Yr 10).
Some of Llantwit Major School’s best athletes have been competing for the school in country competitions over the last few weeks and producing some outstanding results. George Snaith (Yr 7) won both the county discus and javelin and Iwan Robinson-Booth came second in 100m and 200m the Welsh Schools Championships. Iwan has subsequently been selected to run for Wales over the coming months and as a school we wish him the best of luck.
Earlier in the summer the Year 7 boys athletics team competed in the Cardiff and Vale country championships and finished in a very respectable fourth position overall. There were some excellent performances from pupils in many events, most notable George Snaith in the discus and javelin, throwing 20 metres and 34 metres respectively.
