For the second year running, our Indoor Athletics Team finished first out of 28 schools from Bury and will now go onto the same event at the Greater Manchester Games in march, representing Bury!
Out of the 10 different running races; we managed to win all of our heats! In the field events we also witnessed some amazing jumps and throws!
Here are the top 10 schools:
Holcombe Brook (1072 points), Hollymount 1044, Greenmount 926, BGS 878, Tottington 860, St Josephs and St Bedes 820, Hazelhurst 818, Fairfield 816, Lowercroft 796, CC Ainsworth 792.
Hearing the result was very tense, as you can see in this video…
It was a brilliant team effort, the children showed a real bond. Here was one comment on Twitter by one of our parents/supporters…
