Anouska Fairhurst launched her javelin to a new record of 36.31m, while Freddie Gander raced to a new school record in the 800m event.

Robert Blewitt, Headteacher of LOGS, commented: “Sports day is a chance for all our students to compete in a variety of events. It’s not just about the personal victories either, but the collective effort of gaining precious points for their houses. As always, we’re proud of all the students and I’m sure next year will see even more new records being set.”
