Cross Country Champions again!

Well done to our Cross Country team who have won this year's league.

Well done to our Cross Country team who have won this year's league. The Hackney Primary Schools Cross-Country league is an annual event consisting of four separate 1.5K races, two in November and two in January. Each team is composed of five boys and five girls who score, and guest runners who do not score. Points are awarded based on each team’s position in the race: first place scores one point, second place scores two points etc., so the lowest scoring team after all four races wins the league. Over forty children, both scorers and guests, represented Gayhurst in this year's competition and Gayhurst were the overall winners yet again. This was our fourth victory since the competition began seven years ago.
