ISA Cross Country
On a rather cold and damp afternoon on Wednesday 3rd February the cross-country travelled to the annual ISA midland competition at Bedstone College, Shropshire. The children have always produced great results at this event and this year was no exception, with particular mention to Nicholas (22nd) in the boys’ section, Caroline (12th) and Laura (17th) in the girls section, with around 100 runners in each category. But a special mention should go to Phoebe who achieved a spectacular 9th place in the girls race and that should see her through to the National competition later this month. Congratulations to the whole team who ran well in difficult conditions.

Friday Entertainment
