Fernside School had a successful day at the NC Cross Country champs. Students worked hard to achieve their goals. WE had whole age groups finish in the top ten runners - 9yr boys (Harrison and Liam Hewitt) and 12 yr girls (Imogen, Molly Snowden and Ashleigh Ritchie). Imogen Eglesfield took the podium with a well earned 2nd place and Harrison Lane finished 6th to also qualify for the Canterbury Cross Country. Ben Borcoskie also finished in the top10 12yr boys. Only the top 6 runners qualified for Canterbury.

Extra activities out os School and cross country
Like Biking?Then try a mountain bike course or race - see the extra-curricular page for more information.
Fernside School's Cross country is on May 7th. It is earlier this year as 4 classes are off to camp!
WE will again be holding it at the Worhtington's Farm on Mt Thomas Road.
I would like to make some course markers - 4 litre paint lids with wire or tent pegs welded on - is anyone able to help me with that?
Triathlon
Imogen, Ashleigh, Sam, and Harrison represented the School at the Canterbury Triathlon yesterday at Pegasus Town - swimming in the lake, biking and then a 2.5km run. There were about 250 children competing but with supporters, marshalls and other spectators the number was calculated at 750!
Results are provisional but will most likely stand. Our athletes were truly outstanding and obviously benefitted from their practices - thanks to Mums and Dads!
Imi was placed 9th/60, Ashleigh 16th/60 - 12yrs girls (2 in the top 20 is an outstanding result!)
Sam was placed 34th/54 in 12y boys and Harrison 45th/79 in 9yr boys.
Next events are the School Cross country on 7 May, and Canterbury Duathlon on 9 May.
