Thank you to Mr Pye and Mrs Schoolhammer for working with the squad and thank you to parents for transporting the children.

Cross Country challenges you both physically and mentally. I have always said the pupils at Clockhouse are tenacious and this just proves it. I am very proud of everyone involved!'
