The games were marked by fast-paced action, sharp tactics, and impressive displays of teamwork. Despite the competitive edge, the atmosphere remained friendly and supportive, with students cheering each other on across the fields.

The WPT Sports Day was a true celebration of community, collaboration, and the joy of sport. With students and staff coming together in such high spirits, the event embodied the unity and shared pride that defines what we’re all about here at WPT. We believe that every child deserves equal access to high-quality PE and sport, both in and out of school. PE and sport not only promote health, personal and social development, but also raise aspirations and support academic success.
Our aim is to continue to provide inclusive, safe and engaging opportunities that are firmly set in our PE curriculum, and extend into extra-curricular activities and cross-Trust competitions.
Congratulations to all who took part – whether competing, supporting, or volunteering – for making the 2025 Sports Day a memorable event for our entire WPT community.
