The U16 hockey team has qualified for the National Finals, which will be held at the Olympic Legacy site in Stratford on 22 and 23 April 2015.
In the Midland Hockey Finals the team kept a clean sheet through the group matches against Bishop Vesey (3-0), Uppingham (4-0) and Oakham (2-0), and then went on to beat last year’s national champions, Trent College, in the semi-final (1-0). The team’s only loss came against Repton College in the final (5-1).
The day was a fantastic final celebration of the Mathematical talent that exists in our young people across the city and wider region, and we are so proud to remain key hubs for bringing such talent together – we’re already excited for next year!
Beyond sharpening my public speaking and critical thinking skills, MUN left me with incredible memories and a deep appreciation for diplomacy. It was an exhilarating experience, and I can’t wait to do it all over again!
If you were expecting a serious, well-structured debate at this year’s Easter debate, you were in for a surprise. What unfolded was less of a formal argument and more of a theatrical masterpiece – complete with flying chocolate, wild accusations and a speaker who somehow turned it into a human rights campaign for sugar.
Managing all of this in just three weeks was no easy task – there were plenty of ups and downs, but the team’s dedication made it possible. The level of skill, commitment, and passion each person brought to their role made the challenge easier to handle, and seeing everything come together at nationals was a testament to the hard work and resilience of every team member.
