Outstanding success at the EPSSA Cross Country event today Moday 3rd March on the Meadows. Lawson and Tom both achieved Second Place in the P6 and P7 Boys’ races and Cerys and Lucia achieved First Place in the P6 and P7 Girls’ races. Cerys had a convincing win, despite having to run for part of the race with only one shoe! The other runners also did extremely well, with many being placed in the first fifty in each event, competing against schools from all over the city.
Our first 5 P6 and P7 boys and girls in each race today will go on to compete in the EPSSA Final Cross Country event at Inverleith Park on Monday 17th March at 11.00am. Thank you to all the parents who came along to support and to Willie Jarvie and Dante’s mum who have coached the children so well at the lunchtime Running Club. Participation in the Lothian Schools Cross Country events, introduced to the school by Lucia’s mum, Rosemary Free, has also had a hugely positive impact on the progress and success of the pupils. Well done P6 and P7! A very exciting event!
Thank you to Mrs Sally Nowell for helping to officiate and to Mrs Beth Walker and Mr Jonathan Wallace for organising the proceedings.
