Sports day at Constantine School saw a closely fought battle between the various teams which saw the ultimate winners snatch victory with the narrowest of margins.

"There was the potential of a three way draw, all depending on the year five/six relay - the 58th race," said assistant headteacher and PE coordinator, Cags Gilbert. "As it happens the greens just pipped the others and they had their long awaited dream of lifting the trophy for the first time since 2011."

She added: "Since I have been organising sports days at Constantine School, the numbers on roll have doubled as we are now 173, hence a huge amount of races ensuring every child had the opportunity to race at least three times, or more.

"That was certainly the largest number ever and thanks to the hard work of the staff and parent teams it went smoothly. On top of that, I must say a huge thank you to many pupils, and especially the year sixes who were just awesome. They cheered and supported their teams like I have never seen before and really embraced the day. They really are a great bunch and their exemplary behaviour really did help the event run well."
