Cricket and Athletics Training

On Tuesday Form III set off to Akeley Wood Junior School, about an hour away near Milton Keynes.  They were excited and a little nervous too, as for most of them, this was their first cricket game.  We split into three teams and played against mixed sides.  Our girls did a great job of bowling overarm, batting and fielding.  They learnt a great deal about the game and there were some highlights too, with some big hits, a catch and a wicket.  Well done girls on your performance today.

 

Our Form VI girls were out training at Stockwood Park Athletics track on Wednesday and were in great form after their week away in France.  They enjoyed having a go at all the field events and there were some great performances for certain individuals.  Sprints were the favourite for some, whilst a couple battled it out for 1st and 2nd in the 600m.  Relays were fun at the end, with one of our parents kindly taking the last leg for one team!  Well done Form VI.

Come Home to St Hilda's 🕊️
For 135 years, generations of girls have walked through St Hilda’s red doors, forming friendships, creating memories and becoming part of a community that lasts long after school days are over.
To celebrate this special milestone, we are delighted to invite our alumni community to our very first St Hilda’s School Alumni Event, taking place on Saturday 19th September from 2-5pm.
Whether you left St Hilda’s recently or many years ago, we hope you’ll join us to reconnect with former classmates, families and staff, rediscover the school, and celebrate the traditions that have made St Hilda’s such a special place for 135 years.
