It was a fantastic sunny day at Farthing Downs as Oakhyrst Grange were invited to take part in a cross-country race, organised by South London Harriers. It was going to be a challenging course with a tough incline against other strong runners.
Five children represented our school, demonstrating determination and great sportsmanship throughout their respective races. Our runners put in excellent performances, finishing in the following positions:
Year 3&4 Girls race:
- Georgia R-B – 6th place
- Cara M – 29th place
- Edie R-B – 32nd place
Year 3&4 Boys race:
- Thomas Y – 33rd position
Year 5&6 Boys race:
- Alex W – 24th place
The race was made even more special by the lovely sunshine and the fantastic support from parents, who cheered on our runners from start to finish. Their encouragement was greatly appreciated.
Well done to all our runners for all their effort and commitment.
Mr David Smith, Head of Sport
