On Thursday 4th October, Richard Clarke entered our first sports competition of the season, the Staffordshire County Cross Country selection event at Thomas Alleynes. Ten pupils, 6 from year 3 and 4 from year 4 took part, competing against four other schools across our area. The event started with year 3 girls running 600m followed by year 3 boys. Next came year 4 girls running 1km and then year 4 boys running the same distance. Each team did their very best on the day with our year 3 girls coming 1st, 5th & 14th, a very strong finish in the team event and our year 3 boys finishing 4th, 15th & 18th, with Jack Vernon just missing out on a medal. Our year 4 teams found the distance hard work but they gave it their all and produced a great effort with everyone determined to finish the race. Well done everyone on acheiving your personal best.
