The Junior Pupils had their #sportsday on Wednesday and what a day it was! From High jump to Long Jump, Target throwing to Vortex throwing and even Shotput. We also had plenty of track events including running races, team relays and long distance at 600m!

It has been a busy week of sport at St Nick's, which is lovely to be able to say after such a long time without fixtures. It is great to see the girls giving their all on the sports field, interacting with other pupils and making the most of the sporting opportunities on offer.

Two teams from Year 4 had their first away cricket match today against @Barfield_School. They all played with great enthusiasm and didn't let the rather damp conditions spoil their fun! Well done to all who participated.

Year 5 had their first away cricket fixture on Wednesday against @Amesbury_School. The girls battled really well, gaining 218 runs, and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Well done to all who participated.

Year 11 are looking forward to a week of fun, including a trip to Thorpe Park, a day at the beach and camping in the school grounds!

Year 11 had a relaxed fun afternoon after their recent mock examinations. The afternoon consisted of tennis, rounders and silly sports day activities with hot chocolate and cookies! #stnicksfun

Four girls from Y7/8 competed in the LTA Schools Competition yesterday. We are in the Hampshire League division 2. We hosted @DitchamPark and each girl played in both a singles and doubles match. It was so nice to see the girls playing and interacting with their opposition.
