Year 9 Francis House Pupil Kienna Buddle is heading to the All Star World Cheerleading Competition in Florida next week.

Kienna's talent was first picked up at St Richard’s Primary School where she won the KCSP Sporting Behaviour Father Gilbert cup. Sadly not long after this win, her local cheer programme was closed down. However her talent was recognised and she was offered a place with Gravesend based club-Ice Athletics Cheer. Kienna has come such a long way and she is so dedicated to her sport. Kienna currently attends 3 times a week, enduring 103 mile around trip each time. Kienna and her team are the Junior International Team of ICE Athletics Cheer in the International under 17’s division. As they head into this competition they are the only UK team in that division. This is a wonderful opportunity to not only travel and compete but to train and watch some of the most amazing teams from around the world. At St Edmund’s Catholic School we are incredibly proud of Kienna, we will be “cheering” from afar and we are wishing Kienna and the team good luck and glory in Florida.
