RSM Inter School Cross Country

On Tuesday we welcomed Micklefield, Pennthorpe, Hawthorns and Lingfield Notre Dame to Hartswood for our annual Cross Country meet. It was a beautiful Spring afternoon and the sun shone as the children gathered to warm up. The U10 boys and girls were the first to start and what a race it turned out to be with many sprinting the final 100 metres. Next it was the turn of the U11 boys and girls who made an impressive sight as they ran around the perimeter of the grounds. It was an exciting finish as the children pushed themselves right up to the last moment of the race. Well done to all the runners and particularly to Emily Burke who came first in the girls’ U10 category.

Everyone enjoyed a well deserved tea in the club house afterwards.
