Cross Country Success!

Friday 3rd October 2014

What a fantastic day! All of the juniors who took part in the local small schools cross country run should feel incredibly proud and be smiling from ear to ear. The course was very undulating over long grassy fields and even included climbing over a fence, twice! It really was a cross country course and a great introduction to those new to the sport.

There were two races spilt into boys and girls. The first the Year 3 and 4 race was a little over a mile and our only junior boys did a super job and came in 9th and 10th. The girls did equally as well, with our first two achieving 17th and 20th.

The second race for the Year 5 and 6’s, was just as good, and although on this occasion we only had representatives from the year 6 girls, they ran an excellent race and between them succeeded in winning the top spot for the girls race! Overall their places were: 1st, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th. Georgina who won this second race was presented with a certificate and so were the winning girls team.

Well done to everyone who took part and to those pupils, parents and friends who came along to support them.

A great start to our sporting year.
