Our pupils displayed incredible grit and determination at the Cobham Hall Cross Country competition, where four teams competed across the U11 and U13 boys and girls categories.
The competition saw our pupils tackling a particularly tough course, which truly tested their resilience. Despite the challenging conditions, all the pupils ran extremely well, embodying the spirit of cross country running.
We had some excellent individual results, with several pupils placing highly among large fields of competitors:
- Benedict B had a phenomenal race, finishing 5th out of 120 runners in the U13 Boys race.
- Annabelle G showcased great potential, finishing 12th out of 125 runners in the U13 Girls race, despite competing as a Year 7 pupil.
- Jack O achieved a strong finish, coming 17th out of 119 runners in the U11 race.
These achievements are a credit to the pupils’ hard work and competitive spirit.
