On Monday 13th October, 12 children from KS2 took part in a Cross Country event at Lydiard Park.

There were 4 age group races and each student had to run a mile over a scenic route through the park. All the students ran impressively with our best result coming in the Year 5/6 boys race. There were 18 schools participating and all our students came in the top half of their races. Behaviour, support and endurance were all impressive.

Well done to all the participants.
