Traditional Founder’s Day Sports Morning Celebrations

On Thursday 6th November 2025, The English School proudly celebrated its traditional morning Founder’s Day Sports, bringing together students from all year groups for a vibrant and competitive programme of sporting activities. The campus was alive with energy as students took part in a series of Inter-House competitions, all held in honour of our Founder and the school’s enduring sporting tradition.

Throughout the morning, Heads of House led their teams with enthusiasm and determination, while students were supported and supervised by members of staff, Heads of Year and members of the Senior Leadership Team. The spirit of fair play, teamwork and house pride was evident in every match and event.

After a series of hard-fought contests, the following Houses emerged as champions:

• Year 1: Survivor Inter-House Challenge – Newham
• Year 2: Junior NBA Inter-House Competition – Wolseley
• Year 3: Boys/Girls Futsal Inter-House Competition – Boys: Kitchener | Girls: Newham
• Year 4: Mixed Futsal Inter-House Competition – Kitchener
• Year 5: Mixed Futsal Inter-House Competition – Kitchener
• Year 6: Boys 7-a-Side Football Tournament – Kitchener
• Year 7: Boys 7-a-Side Football Tournament – Beaconsfield (also Super Cup Winners)

The programme concluded with the ever-popular Staff v Students Volleyball Match, where the students demonstrated impressive skill and teamwork, winning the first set to the delight of their peers.

Founder’s Day Sports once again highlighted the strength of our House system, the talent and commitment of our students, and the dedication of our staff.

Congratulations to everyone who took part, supported, organised or officiated during this special morning of sport.
