The Greswold sporting season kicks off with notable successes at annual Cross Country event
Greswold took full part in this year's South Solihull Cross Country competition, the first event of a very busy inter-school sports' calendar.
4 teams comprising boys and girls from years' 5 and 6 competed in the large schools event against at least 100 other children in each race. The mile-long course was situated on the site of Old Silhillians and the competition was very high.
Year 5 boys finished an excellent 4th with Year 6 boys finishing in 7th while year 5 girls placed 8th and year 6 girls placed 10th. All the children represented Greswold with a fantastic attitude and were a credit to both school and their watching families.
Although final standings haven't been released yet, notable successes include Shiv who came 6th in the Year 5 girls' race and Hugo who finished an amazing 2nd in the year 5 boys' race.
Well done to all the children involved whilst credit should also go to the rest of the children in years' 5 and 6 who all helped to prepare the team as the whole of UKS2 were involved in the original trials held at school.
