Cross Country
It was a fantastic Wednesday afternoon, in the sunshine at Sedbergh for the North West region of the ESAA Cross Country Cup.
Our students’ attitude, enthusiasm and effort was outstanding! The six girls, who had qualified as a team to represent WHS, performed to their best against 60 other competitors. The undulating 2.4km course saw a close finish, with Frankie achieving an outstanding 4th place out of all qualifying schools in the North West. A tremendous achievement and one to be very proud of! Well done to all students involved.
Year 8 & 9 Netball
Wednesday night saw a lovely evening of netball being played from some of our Year 8 and 9 players. RR Morton Academy kindly travelled to play a friendly fixture against us. The game aimed to develop players knowledge and confidence as both schools’ teachers helped coach throughout the matches. It was a great evening for both schools.
Year 8 Players’ Player – Zoey
Year 9 Players’ Player – Ava
Year 7 Rugby
Our Year 7 Rugby players enjoyed a great afternoon at the Rugby Festival hosted by RR Central Academy on Wednesday.
Mountain Runners
23 of our Mountain Running Club enjoyed a quick blast around the Ridge in the late afternoon sunshine on Wednesday. Running from school, the energetic team jogged through the streets heading towards Lanercost before making their way onto the ridge. Next Wednesday, their destination will be the glorious Gelt Woods!
