Well done to Jake Wong (2K) and Poppy (6Y) and a number of other students who participated in the Spartan Race at the beginning of November. They had to complete a course with a number of obstacles in their way. It’s a really tough race so to finish it is a tremendous effort!
Congratulations to Mia (6H) who has been selected to be a part of the Hong Kong Under 12 girls football squad. Good luck with your training!
