Athletes from HGS are making their mark on the national stage, clocking up several impressive performances over the past few weeks.
Sixth Form students gained a rich insight into various careers and how to access them as industry professionals shared their stories at the Progression Days, a two-day event which is part of a programme to help students plan for the future.
Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 enjoyed action-packed days as they competed in Sports Day and enjoyed a rewards trip out to Flamingo Land. Students competed in their Ventus, Ignis, Terra and Ignis (VITA) houses with touch rugby, rounders, tennis, dodgeball, volleyball, table tennis, badminton, tug of war and track events.
HGS took part in the Harrogate District Walk to School day, led by the charity Zero Carbon Harrogate. Instead of their usual car journey, students either walked, cycled, used public transport, or used the ‘park and stride’ option and walked the last mile to their school.
More than 200 students have completed outdoor sections of their Duke of Edinburgh Award challenges this month – a welcome sign of their lives getting back to normal.
