On Thursday 7th March 12 children (6 girls and 6 boys) took part in the Primary School’s Cross Country Championship. It was a massive event with over 250 children taking part from 24 Primary Schools across the island. It was the first time Vallajeelt had taken part in this event for a number of years, so it was the first experience for all children involved.
Due to all the wet weather we have had this year, the course at Nobles Park was a tricky one! It was very boggy which led to a number of children losing their shoes! All the children gave it their all, pushing themselves to the max and crossing that finish line with nothing left in the tank. Vallajeelt finished 16th out of 24 schools. Well done to all the children who took part, they should be very proud of themselves, I know we are!
