The Kingsley School’s Sixth Form A-level PE students assisted in the planning and organisation of the event, along with sports ambassadors from both The Kingsley School and Campion School.

Sophie Windsor, head of PE at Kingsley, said: “It is always a pleasure to welcome our local community to our facilities. The infant agility event is a highlight of our year and seeing so many share our inclusive ethos of peer support, healthy competition and giving-things-a-go is an absolute joy. Many thanks to all.”
