BADMINTON

YEAR 11 GEOGRAPHY GO CYCLE

Tiffin senior badminton teams faced a very strong side from Isleworth and Syon school on Wednesday afternoon.

Year 11 geographers undertook their GCSE human geography fieldwork in Kingston during September and October. The trips involve collecting data from multiple sites, with the aim to understand if the Kingston ‘ Go Cycle ’ scheme has improved the environment for those travelling on foot and by bicycle. The trip is a crucial aspect of the GCSE course and their experiences are assessed in the Paper 3 exam during 2023.

The match scores though reveal the terrific strength in depth at the top of the school. The A team won by 7 games to 2 with the excellent pairing of Aarya Karthik and Hugo Dulson winning all three of their matches comfortably. The B team won by an astonishing 12 games to 0.

The students were engaged and took part in the data collection methods with interest and maturity. The students were all brilliantly behaved, making the trips fantastic to be a part of.
