36 of our children took part in the Aylesbury Vale Primary School Athletic Association Cross Country Championships. These were held in the stunning grounds of Ascott House, where the children completed a hilly and therefore demanding course.

 

As a school we take part in the competition designed for smaller primary schools, meaning those with only one class per year group. There were 18 schools competing, which meant that the event was very busy, with children and their supporters everywhere! Everyone who took part should be very proud of their effort and achievement. Standing at the finish line, it was clearly evident that our runners had given their absolute best. The exhausted faces were soon replaced with smiles, once they had got their breath back. 

 

Overall, our girls’ team came second and our boys’ team came fourth, which meant that as a school we finished third. These results are fantastic!

 

Well done everyone involved! You helped us demonstrate that Swanbourne C of E school are a force to be reckoned with in the sporting arena.
