It was a very exciting start to the week on Monday 13th September when we welcomed Olympic medal winning hockey player and Howell's alumna, Sarah Jones, back to school following her and her team’s tremendous success in Tokyo over the summer. Sarah’s first port of call was our Prep School where she was greeted by rapturous applause and cheers from girls and staff waving flags, she even got involved with Year 3's first ever hockey lesson! Sarah also visited the Senior School where she took part in a Q and A with Mr Baker for students in Years 7, 8 and 9 and then enjoyed meeting students participating in our Talented Athletes’ Programme. Everyone loved hearing about Sarah’s time in Tokyo, her career and finding out more about her time in Howell’s, and students and staff were bursting with questions. We were delighted that Sarah’s former PE teacher, Mrs Jones, was also able to join us. Thank you so much for inspiring our students and staff, Sarah, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
