Cross-County Event

8th November 2024

Cross-country:

On Wednesday we participated in the first cross-county event of the year at Chase Terrace Academy. There was a large turnout from the schools from Cannock, Lichfield & Burntwood and in the Y8/9 boy race there were in excess of 50 participants. 

All the students put in a cracking effort over the course which ranged from 2.5 km for the younger students up to 4 km for the older students. A shout out to Freddie Rogers who came second in the Y10/11 race and was so close to first, he was just pipped on the line after a tough 4 kilometres. 

Our next race is in two weeks time at King Edwards in Lichfield and we will hopefully take more students. If you are interested in running, please come to S6 at the end of the school day with your PE kit or speak to Mr Tindall. Book your slot on Arbor.
