Anya, Dan and Sophie ran the London Landmarks Half Marathon on 7 April) and all completed it!
With over 24,000 runners and a huge atmosphere with live bands, choirs and a dedicated crowd cheering the runners the Lower Sixth pupils said, "We all feel so grateful to have been a part of... it, which wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible fundraising efforts from our friends and staff members… thank you for the donations! Together we raised £1,975 for our three chosen charities – @youngmindsuk (Sophie), The Alzheimer's Trust (Anya) and @macmillancancer Services (Dan)."
Anya and Sophie were also pleased to be able to represent @mattbubb’s community as he kindly gifted some t shirts to put on at the finish line!

Following the news of Morgan and Will's success (not following our IG page? 😉) in the Sportiva Events duathlon in Exmouth on Sunday, we wanted to also applaud Barnaby (L2) who was the winner of the Tristar 1 aquathlon!
Barnaby, who swims with Newton Abbot Swimming and Water Polo ...Club, completed his swim in 3:32.0 and an overall race time of 10:41.0 - amazing results! Well done! 👏

Outdoor learning at its best with U1 making their own instruments from grass blades this morning! A test of patience and practice, the pleasure of something that can be done so simply and bring life lessons. Give it a go!

We are celebrating what is considered to be William Shakespeare's birthday today with some flashback photos of our middle school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream last November. We are truly grateful for the chance to have his works to study, learn and perform 🎭
Want to ...perform in shows like this? We had 9 pupils accepted into the National Youth Theatre last year and 100% distinctions in LAMDA over the past 2 years. Why not come and see us at our next open event to chat to our drama team? Links in bio above 👆

There are no words to describe how immensely proud we are of Mr Adam Cunningham, Head of Junior School Mathematics, Upper Two form tutor and Head of CCF RAF, and his sheer determination to cross the finish line @londonmarathon on Sunday. On track for a time of around 3h26m, he sadly broke his leg ...with 850m to go. Side stepping a water bottle and landing oddly, he felt a searing pain shoot through his leg and fell to his knees. He then shuffled on his bottom for an hour to cross the finish line with such kind support from race marshals.
We know that we aspire to excel beyond expectations here at Exeter School but this is unbelievable! Adam completed the race and received his medal! 😬 Watch him crossing the line at 2:54:25 of the BBC's finish line videos.
Adam wishes to pass through his thanks to all who have contributed to his fund-raising for the British Heart Foundation - so many staff and parents in our community have donated. If anyone still wants to donate, considering this 'breaking news' (too soon?), please do so via his Just Giving page which you can find on our Facebook post.
