It was the turn of the girls to represent Greswold at the Y5 and Y6 Cross Country competition at Old Silhillians this evening.
After a brilliant 2nd place team finish by the Y6 boys on Thursday, the girls all performed admirably and showed a great deal of commitment with Shriya (11th), Ellie (18th) and Florence (18th) finishing in the top 20 on their respective races. Overall, Y5 girls finished just outside the medal places in 4th with Y6 girls finishing in 8th.
The mile long course was challenging for the 90 girls in each race but the level of teamwork and support on show from Greswold and other schools was so lovely to see.
Having so many confident runners also bodes well for Sportshall Athletics and Y6 Borough Sports' later in the year too!
Thank you as always to the parents who lent their support and to Mrs Rochelle and Mrs Foster for attending. Without staff giving up their time, these sorts of invaluable events couldn't take place.
