In a photo finish, Max managed a silver in the 4 x 100m relay and Amber, who competed in the 600m race and the 4 x 100m relay ran an incredible 3rd leg to help her team come from behind and take 1st Place.
Year 7 students Jack won bronze with Tess came fourth in hurdles.
Skye went one better with excellent technique to run a fantastic bend, winning Gold as part of the Year 7 relay team.
Seb in Year 9 showed great potential in High Jump clearing 1.60m to finish with a bronze medal too.
Overall, our pupils were an absolute credit to the College and an integral part of the North Region’s success at the National Championships.
