Sir Roger Bannister is best known for running

“The Miracle Mile” on the 6th May 1954 at Iffley

Road Track in Oxford. At a time when all around

thought it was impossible to break the four mi-

nute barrier, Bannister rose to the challenge and

set a record of 3 minutes 59.4 seconds.

Bannister often claimed that "The man who can

drive himself further once the effort gets painful

is the man who will win." And this ties in with our

House motto – “Impossible is Nothing.”

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by

small men who find it easier to live the world they

have been given, rather than to explore the power

they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It is

an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It is a

dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is tempo-

rary. Impossible is nothing."
