Longhill High School – Sports Day 2023
Every year Sports Day is an important cultural event for our school.
To encourage competition and comradery the Staff & Student body is split into four houses; Dome, Lanes, Pier and Pavilion.
During the morning all the students will be organised in houses, in their year groups. They will then be briefed by the Head of Year and a member of the PE staff.
