The Scoil Mhuire cross country invitational took place yesterday in Stonebridge, with over 200 boys and girls from 4th, 5th, and 6th classes representing 8 different schools taking part. The standard of racing was fantastic, with every race being very closely contested. Each race covered a distance of nearly 1 mile, making it a great challenge for all competitors. St Anne’s fielded a team of nearly 50 children, who produced some outstanding runs to win 4 medals. Ella Hanly claimed silver in the 4th class girls’ race. Jack Dwyer produced an exceptional run to win silver in the 6th class boys event, while in the 4th class boys race, Daniel Baynes and Daniel Crosbie produced outstanding runs to take the gold and silver medals respectively. This was also enough to help the 4th class boys win the team event. Sincere thanks to all involved in organising such a great event.
