On Saturday, the annual competition for the Sergison Trophy took place on the School’s .22 range. This is a four-way shoot between Staff, Old Suttonians, parents and current pupils. A barbecue is provided at the back of the range cooked by Major Prem and Mr Horley. We were lucky with the weather, apart from one downpour, the sun shined on us all and a good morning's shooting was had. Those who had not shot before, or who’s skills were rusty, were ably coached by the OS and a good set of scores were achieved. Top scores for the OS included 99/100 from both Freddie and Chris Pawlick; the Staff achieved a top score of 98/100; Patrick and Andy for the parents managed 96/100 and Elyse came top for the students with 94/100.

An average of the top six scores was used to calculate the overall rankings. The Staff came fourth, students third and the parents were narrowly beaten to the top spot by the OS.

I would like to thank all who attended and especially Mrs Kitchen for running the range, Major Prem and Mr Horley for the barbecue and the OS for coaching.  I hope to see you all next year.
