From a heavily overcast early dawn a cloudy and blustery morning greeted the athletes as they arrived at the track for the 2024 Senior School Interhouse Track and Field competition. As is usual, the house competition was fiercely competed in both the U16 and O16 age groups. One school record was beaten this year by Etim (P) who ran an excellent 11.6s in the 100m to beat Dan’s (P) record of 11.7s set in 2019. Well done, Etim.
