• 1500m: 4^th (George H), 4^th (Ruben S)
• Long Jump: 1^st (Olivier G), 1^st (Luke B), 1^st (Sam W), 1^st (AJ E), 1^st (Paddy O)
• High Jump: 3^rd (George D), 4^th (Xander M), 4^th (Caspar R), 1^st (Dim A), 1^st (Paddy O)
• Cricket Ball: 1^st (Luca M)

• Javelin: 3^rd (Arjan L), 1^st (Sean B), 1^st (Alfie G), 4^th (Josh C)
• 4X100m Relay: 2^nd (Under 14’s), 1^st (Under 13’s), 3^rd (Under 12’s), 3^rd (Under 11’s), 2^nd (Under 10’s)

In the end, we placed 2^nd in the competition.

This means that Beacon still holds the trophy, but we still did very well and are proud of our results.

We have learned where our weaknesses are, and this can only allow us to improve further.
