Fencing videos




Last day of Fencing

Today was our last day of fencing at Repsol with Ares. Students had the opportunity to team up and play a best of 3 style tournament. I heard some great words of encouragement, and saw some great team work! It was competitive as usual.
We definitely saw progression over the 5 sessions and can really see that they are picking up new activities faster and faster as their body awareness increase and their athletic ‘tool belt’ grows!

Our official winners with a time of 5:26, Ben and Thomas!

Bobsleigh

Our HPAD students are breaking all kinds of records! We had 2 successful days of bobsleigh at the ice house. Lead by 5 time Olympian Lascelles Brown as our coach.
Once again they took risks, pushed themselves, were competitive and worked together to achieve personal bests! I was really proud of their willingness, growth, perseverance and support for each other. I’m sure they brought home several stories about their experiences.
