Well done to all the fantastic cross-country racers for participating in the race on Thursday 5th October, at The Marches. The year 3/4 and 5/6 girls represented the school superbly, with top finishing positions. There were lots of boys in the Year 3/4 race and they were really enthusiastic and are now looking forward to competing again. The Year 5/6 boys’ race was also very well represented with six boys, who were all fantastic. Two boys finished in the top 5! We are looking forward to seeing you all again in the next race. Thank you to parents and carers, for all your support, helping with transport and cheering the pupils on.

2021

We were delighted to return to the Marches for cross country races after a break due to Covid. Things were different this year as parents were not able to stay to watch their children compete for most of the events, but our team made up for this and they all cheered each other on as they raced. It was lovely that parents were able to attend the final meeting.

It was an incredible final for our amazing Cross-country runners on Thursday 26th May. Despite the very wet conditions the children were fantastic and loved the support from parents/carers/siblings, who were invited to watch for the first time this year.  We are all so proud of the wonderful runners who have taken part this year.

We had three individual medal winners: A year 6 girl's individual gold medal, a year 4 boy's individual gold and year 4 girl's bronze. The Boys Year 3 and 4 Team came 3rd overall and Year 3 and 4 Girls Team came 2nd - what incredible results.
