Sports Week 2025

The week beginning Monday 7th July saw the academy come alive with energy, excitement, and exceptional athleticism as we celebrated our annual Sports Week — a much-anticipated highlight of the calendar!

The action kicked off on Monday and Wednesday with dedicated Sports Days for each year group. Students gave it their all across a range of events, showcasing not only their physical abilities but also their team spirit and determination.

On Tuesday, we proudly hosted Town Sports, welcoming schools from across St Helens for a thrilling day of athletics. Our students represented the academy with pride and passion, competing fiercely in the St Helens Schools Athletics competition. A huge shoutout goes to our incredible Sports Leaders, whose support and organisation helped the event run smoothly — true ambassadors of leadership and teamwork!

Thursday brought the return of our legendary Sutton’s Got Steel — a test of strength, stamina, and spirit. The competition was fierce, but the atmosphere was electric as students pushed their limits in pursuit of glory.

The grand finale came on Friday, when the track finals took place under glorious sunshine. The entire academy gathered to cheer on the finalists, creating an unforgettable atmosphere of unity and celebration. Even our staff joined in the fun, taking part in a spirited relay race that had everyone on their feet!

To top it all off, records were broken by our outstanding athletes — a testament to their hard work, resilience, and dedication.

Well done to all students and staff who made Sports Week 2025 such a roaring success!
