Cross Country Race News

We had over 22 children taking part in the York Schools Cross Country races last week. These took place at Askham Bryan College and they are always very well attended by many children from across the city.

A huge well done to all those children who took part and especially Darcey in Y1 who ran the girls Y1 race, Lucas and Otis in year 2 who came 1st and 3rd in their race, and Lance and Jimmy in year 4 who came joint 8th in their age group.

The KS2 boys will go onto a race to represent York in the North Yorkshire Schools event at Giggleswick School on the 23rd November. Many thanks to the parents for providing the children with lifts to this event. It is much appreciated.Mrs Rowntree
