On
Saturday the
13th of November 2004 Jasmine, Selena, Katie, Laura, Emily and
Iona entered
in
The cross country run at Colmers Hill. Everyone had to meet at
the school then we had to walk to
The hill. The girl’s race was at
10:30am and the boy’s race was at
10:45am.
We started with a warm-up and then we got ready to rumble the horn
went and we were off.
Jasmine took an early lead with Selena close behind her. Katie,
Laura, Emily and
Iona were close
behind. As we were coming down through the last field we could hear
our little mascot Katrina
who could not run because she was ill was cheering us all on.
Soon the race was over and as we
came through the funnel we got a little card which said our place
we came in.
The places are as followed:
Jasmine: 2nd, Selena: 9th, Katie: 14th, Laura: 17th,
Emily: 27th and
Iona: 32nd.
After the boy’s race had finished we walked back down to the
school for the presentation of the
medals and the trophies. When we got down to the school Richard
Tuck presented people with medals and the trophies.
With the medals the first three people home got a medal. The
schools who won meddles are: Symondsbury, Loders and Thorners.
The trophies were given to: Thorners girls team.
