On your marks, get set…

Years 3-6 participated in the TCS Mini London Marathon in schools. Enthusiasm was high as the children ran and walked 2.6 miles over the school fields. The effort and support from everyone was fantastic. Thank you to Mr Doman for organising this event and for inspiring the children as just five days earlier he had also run the official London Marathon.

After some unlucky slips on a very highly polished floor in the 4x1 lap relay the results were in… Bronze and Silver medallists were announced and finally… WGS won gold!

Another individual sporting success to celebrate is Alby in Year 11 who competed in the Welsh Nationals in Swansea. Alby is currently ranked 3rd in Staffordshire in the 200m freestyle and 13th in the West Midlands. Alby’s aim is to reach the top 100 swimmers in the UK and he currently trains five days a week including early 5am training. Well done, Alby!
