Congratulations to all the super athletes at Fernside School.
I am so rapt with your attitude!
You guys absolutely rock - goals were set, you worked hard to achieve them, you supported each other, you celebrated success and you coped with disappointment!
I have entered the qualifiers onto the NC sports website (link on this page) so check that out - and your opposition!
WE had 24 athletes qualify for the 36 field event places so there is room to improve there.
The middle distance was hotly contested and remains a strength.
Winners of the 9, 10 & 11 and 12 boys were announced on Friday in Assembly but the others will be announced and congratulated on Monday when all students are present.
The highest achieving athlete will also be announced - watch this space!
And fresh off the press - 3 School records will matched or bettered last Wednesday
Aleisha Malcolm matched Nicole Hampson's 12 girls' High Jump record of 125cm Wahoo Aleisha!
Lily Womersley set a new turbojet record of 16.5m for 11 girls and
