Well done to our girls who participated in the annual Inter-School Tennis Tournament held at Springfield on Thursday, 10 March. The Inter-Schools is played against the other 7 girls’ schools – Herschel, Springfield, St Cyprians, Rustenburg, Wynberg, Oakhurst and Greenfield. Lyndsey Philipps and Sian Bennewith played in the A section and finished 3rd overall, narrowly missing out on 2nd position on a tie-break. Jada Martin and Zinathi Mkosi played in the B section against A team players so it was tough opposition, but they played extremely well, finishing 5th overall.
Congratulations to Sophia Pooley in Grade 7 who participated in the Nippers Western Province Champs last Saturday and Sunday on Clifton beach. She won a gold medal for finishing first in the flag competition and a silver medal for her second place in the sprints

Incredible House spirit, fierce competition, sporting prowess, flavourful races, parent involvement and outrageous Fancy Hats all added to the fantastic atmosphere of the Micklefield 2022 Sports Day. Huge thanks to all involved and well done to Sandi B and the team on a remarkably well-run and slick event.
