A super performance from our runners at the EPSSA Cross Country Festival at Saughton Park on Monday morning. Our team of 20 runners participated in four races: P6 Girls, P6 Boys, P7 Girls and P7 boys. We were competing in the ‘B’ Schools category against other smaller schools.

We are pleased to report that a number of pupils won medals for finishing in the top ten of their respective races – a great achievement. Well done to our medal winners:

P6 Boys: Jamie S (3rd), Martin (4th), Oscar (5th), David (9th)

P6 Girls: Elysia (2nd), Tabitha (3rd), Julianny (9th)

P7 Boys: Mate’o (4th), William (8th)

P7 Girls: Rahaf (5th), Ava (6th)

As well as being successful in their races, pupils showed excellent behaviour and attitude travelling there and back by public transport. We’re very proud of everyone! Thanks very much to Ariel Yeung, our parent helper, for helping to accompany pupils to and from the event.

P6: Tabitha, Elysia, Julianny, Brielle, Poppy, James, Oscar, Jamie S, David, Martin (P5)
