Winscombe Primary School

Churchill Cross Country Cluster - 16th October 2017

Another sporting event and another huge turnout for Sandford Primary. An incredible 50 children signed up to compete in the Churchill Cross Country Cluster, 1/3 of the entire school! The runners would be split into Year 3/4  boys and girls, followed by Year 5/6 girls and Year 5/6 boys. What was particularly pleasing to see was the number of children who were attempting cross country for the first time!

First up were the Year 3/4  boys and girls. This was to be a huge race involving more than 175 children and, amidst staunch competition, Sandford Primary held their own and ran an exceptional race. Huge congratulations to all our runners from Years 3 and 4, with a particular mention to Evie Ledger and Imogen Harris who finished inside the top 20; 5th and 14th respectively!

Next up were the Year 5/6 girls. Another strong race by the Sandford girls was evidenced by 5 runners finishing inside the top 20 and Talia Hughes picking up the gold! Amazing effort by all the runners, with every runner finishing inside the top 65, out of a total field of 150!
