FENCERS from Truro School have made history after securing all four sabre titles at the Under 17s and Under 20s British Championships.
Will Deary, Jamie Craze, Maria Chart and Caitlin Maxwell bagged gold medals at the competition held in London for the school, who have a partnership with Truro Fencing Club.
These go alongside the victories of former pupils James Honeybone and Sophie Edwards in the senior championships at the end of 2014, it is the first time any school or club has held all six titles together.
Headteacher Andrew Gordon-Brown said: “The results from Will, Jamie, Maria and Caitlin are a credit to all the hard work and dedication they have put in over many years here at the school.
“They have set a fine example to follow for future students and potential fencing scholars and continue to do so at each and every competition.
“The Truro School community are very proud of them.”
