Sydney Gregson: Teacher and Elite Rugby Player
Year 2 teacher Sydney Gregson has been featured in a new short film for the Premiership Women's Rugby Powered Differently campaign. Pupils in her class were very excited to be filmed on site in the Pre-Prep with their superstar teacher a few weeks ago and the resulting footage has been released in time to mark the new rugby league season.
The Powered Differently campaign shines a spotlight on women like Sydney who manage to hold down significant careers alongside playing elite-level rugby. It celebrates "the unique strength, resilience, and determination of female rugby players through the stories of nine diverse athletes, highlighting the job they do alongside their rugby."
The talented Saracen's player often has a supportive Heath Mount crowd of children and parents at her matches and it was amazing to see her run out with the England Red Roses at the recent Six Nations. Congratulations to Sydney and we hope she has a great rugby season ahead of her!
