Yasmine L
Earlier this month, Yasmine represented England in the Marathon Fleuret Challenge in Paris, as a member of the U14 England Fencing squad. The competition is huge, with hundreds of fencers from 40 countries. The level of fencing was extremely high and the experience was invaluable.
Next month, Yasmine is looking forward to representing England again in Madrid, and Putney High at the Public Schools’ Fencing championships. A massive well done!

Mr Gough - Cycling
Rowing coach Mr Gough took to his bike and pushed through the night – and Storm Gerrit, with winds gusting up to 50mph – to cover 500km in a single ride.
Alongside eight other riders, he was taking part in the Herne Hill Velodrome Festive 500 Challenge, lapping the track 1112 times in just over 24 hours on 27 and 28 December.
Mr Gough was raising money for two charities: The Connection at St Martin’s and the Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome. He is currently just short of a fundraising target of £2500 – that’s £2 per lap.
