Junior Boys excel at AJIS Cross Country Championships

We travelled to Rossall School on Wednesday 28^th October for the Association of Independent Schools (AJIS) Cross Country Championships.  It was a long journey but worth it when we arrived at the school! We arrived two hours early, in plenty of time to walk the course and eat our lunch! Then we walked the course so we knew where we were going. It was about 2km – longer than we have ever ran before! Firstly, the year 5 boys raced and Monty Barr came first, followed by Henry who came 16^th and Jayden who came 19^th. Out of 175 boys that was pretty amazing!! Year 5 boys team came 4^th overall, narrowly missing out on a 3^rd place medal. Still an excellent result. The year 6 boys ran next, running extremely well but it was a tough field! We had a great day and everyone enjoyed it. We were glad to be back home though as it was rather windy on the field! Well done to all the boys who took part.
