Twins Triple Title delight at the Nationals

Bright World’s partner school, Stover took the National Prep Schools Athletics Championships by storm yesterday as Luke Bowen-Price and his twin sister Milly Bowen-Price went above and beyond expectations at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham.

Luke won the Under 13 Discus title with an all-time record-breaking throw of 43.56m. He then followed-up this performance by winning the Under 13 Shot Putt with a new Nationals record distance of 13.97m.

Milly battled the elements to finish 2nd in the U13 Shot Putt with a distance of 9.67m and then, with her last throw of the competition, she became U13 Discus Champion with a throw of 25.99m

Last week, Luke was competing at the evening athletics meeting, run by Exeter Harriers, and he recorded a distance of 14.48m, the longest Shot Putt ever by an Under 13 UK athlete.

Fiona Walters and Lana Foster visit Rossall School




Recently, Fiona and Lana visited Rossall School and met with the Registrar, Michelle Metcalf and other members of the team. 
 
Lancashire is a new area for us and Rossall School is an important new partner for Bright World.  We also went along with Liz Trist, our new Local Coordinator for Lancashire. 
You may recognise the surname - and yes, she is related to our Director of Admissions Sheena who is her sister in law.  We are delighted to already be receiving guardianship student enrolments for Rossall School and are more than ready as Liz has been doing a great job of inspecting new host families in the area.  We have some really lovely families all waiting and looking forward to hosting our Rossall Guardianship students in the next academic year.
