The first sports day of the year was off to a promising start with the warm weather and sun shining in Cambridge. Students were able to relax in the morning, chilling with their friends and exploring Cambridge, or staying cool in the hot weather before the games began.
As students headed off to the sports centre, the sun followed behind, and before you knew it, sports day was taking off! The competition from the Football games played earlier in the week continued as Fire vs Ice battled it out.
Alongside the football, which seems to be incredibly popular this program, the students enjoyed the other spaces available at the sports centre. Volleyball was popular and suited the warm atmosphere. And of course, with access to an athletics track, students took each other on in the 100m, or the more long-distance minded were able to do some laps.
Back inside, students could take it easy with an array of board games and activities. Students transformed into detectives during a tense game of Cluedo, and tried out their poker faces at the casino table. Others made friendship bracelets and did some knitting, drawing, and all sorts of arts and crafts! The students tucked into a feast at dinner after working up an appetite!
Looking ahead to Sunday, we head off to London for our second excursion of the summer—a day of museums, theatre, and shopping—but more about that in tomorrow’s blog…
Come back tomorrow to hear all about it, and check out our Instagram and TikTok for more daily updates! (@reachcambridge)
