Each year children from third-sixth class take part in the Santry Athletics competition. This consists of relay and sprint races. We do a lot of training prior to the competition and receive excellent coaching from Ms Cobbe.
We usually are so proud to come home with one or two medals from Santry. This year we surpassed ourselves with 3 medals out of the 8 sprint events. Then it just got better with 7 lots of medals out of 8 relay events including 3 teams of gold. We think we will have to buy a new cabinet just to include today’s cups and medals. An outstanding thank you to Rachel Cobbe- Junior infant teacher (and Anita) for their coaching. What a result.
The results are as follows;
under 10 girls Hanna – silver,
under 11 boys Alex, silver,
under 12 boys – Aaron – bronze
Under 10 girls relay – silver
Under 10 boys relay – bronze
Under 11 girls relay – gold
Under 11 boys relay – gold
Under 12 boys relay – silver
Under 14 boys relay – 4th place
Under 14 girls relay – Gold
Well done to everyone who took part. We are all so proud!
