Priory School sports day: Southsea Common taken over for football, rounders, handball, basketball and more

Once again, a school sports day took over Southsea Common

It’s one of the features of Southsea’s summer calendar - the annual day when Priory School decamps to the common for its wide-scale sports day.

This year was no different, as the students got to try a range of sports including the traditional - like football and rounders - to more unusual sports day pastimes such as basketball, floorball, Danish longball, dodgeball and handball. Despite the heat this week, the youngsters gave it their best shot as they enjoyed their morning outside.

News photographer Sarah Standing was there to capture the action.
