On Friday 10th June FHS took part in their first ever athletics match! It was hosted by FHS SS at Battersea Park Millennium stadium and we took a team of over 30 girls to take part.

Despite not being able to practice on a full track with the correct equipment, the Francis Holland teams did incredibly well. There were a number of 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes in both the track and field events and some outstanding individual performances. As ever the relays provided the highlight of the match with the Year 9 and Year 10 teams winning their events in some style. Overall, the year 7 and year 9 team finished 3rd, and the year 10 team finished 1st – an amazing achievement. Well done to all those girls who took part and competed so well.
