It's not every day an Olympic medalist lends a hand on our hockey pitch. On Monday 13th September, we were delighted to welcome Bronze medal winning hockey player and Howell’s alumna Sarah Jones to Howell’s.
Our youngest girls greeted Sarah with a flag-waving victory parade before she talked to students from Year 3 to Year 9 about her journey from Howell’s to Tokyo and spoke to our Talented Athlete Programme students about her training regime. She even had time to put in a little coaching with Year 3, who were having their very first hockey lesson.
It was wonderful to have Sarah back with us, and she has promised to come and visit again very soon.
