Today we took some of Gilthill’s finest runners to a Cross Country Competition at Wollaton Park and what an afternoon it was! Despite the rain, cold weather and very muddy conditions, our children showed incredible determination, grit and true Gilthill sportsmanship.

They gave their absolute best in every race, supported one another brilliantly and represented our school with pride. We couldn’t be prouder of them all.

A huge well done to every single runner and an extra special congratulations to Harper, who came first in her race — an amazing achievement!

As always, a big thank you to Mr Clarke for organising and supporting the team and to all the parents who helped with transport and braved the rain and mud to cheer us on. It’s a good job we love cross country!

Well done, Team Gilthill!
