International ShowJumping Victory for Jasmine

Congratulations to Jasmine in Year 9, who has been show-jumping for Great Britain at two Nations Cup international events, the first in Compiegne, France, competing for the British Children on Horses team, and then in Lamprechtausen, Austria, as an individual British athlete.

In France, Jasmine opened her first international class with a double clear round, which meant that she proceeded to the team competition on the second day, and the British team finished in 7th place overall.

In the second competition in Austria, she and her horse were in great form, despite the exhausting journey from France. They opened day one with a superb individual 2nd place, and Jasmine then went on to win second day's individual 'against the clock' speed class, competing against the best Children on Horses combinations from across Europe!

It was a world-class competing experience, and it is just unbelievably brilliant that Jasmine has won a competition for Great Britain in her first international event!

Well done, Jasmine – we cannot wait to hear about future successes!

Unsung heroes in the spotlight

Each week, many wonderful things happen at Roedean, about which many in the school are perhaps unaware; this section of the weekly review is dedicated to ‘unsung heroes’, in order to draw our attention to these people and remind us that our community is special.
