With our six lane running track, we offer fixtures against local state and independent schools to Third and Fourth Formers. Two highlights of the Sporting year at 兔子先生 are the House Cross Country held in the Autumn and House Athletics held in the final week of the summer term. Both of these are genuine whole School events.
