20 College Sporting Achievements

Magnificent ‘Miles in May’ Challenge

The College Rugby Academy would like to congratulate everyone
who took part in their 'Miles in May’ Challenge.
It was extremely successful and the students managed a magnificent
5563 miles in the month of May, equating to travelling 6 miles past
Johannesburg in South Africa.
Mr Shepherd, head of the Rugby Academy said, “We have set the
standards now and we must keep on driving towards our end goal, if
we want to mix with the best schools in the country we must prove
why we should be there. I can assure you not many of those so called
powerhouses will be completing the challenges like we are, working as
hard as we are, and working for each other like we are!”

Amazing effort by our Rugby Academy Students

The Rugby Academy has been setting regular fitness tasks and challenges for our students
to participate in during lockdown.
One of them being the ‘Burpee’ challenge, with the scores coming in with students having
completed an amazing total of ‘47,215’ burpees in one week!
