    • Year 6 - Cross Country success

      Published 25/01/24

      Freya began her journey only a little over a year ago, competing in cross country and on the track with the summer highlight becoming the 600m U11 girls County Champion. 

      Freya exhibited exceptional performance and won in the South Northants and Daventry District Schools Cross Country Championships for Year 6. Despite facing challenges in the Northants County Schools Championships, where both Years 6 and Year 7 participated, Freya displayed remarkable resilience. Following an early incident where she was pushed and fell to the ground, she navigated through a 2.6km muddy and hilly course, strongly finishing in 16th place and earning her county selection.

      She will be competing in the upcoming competition on 3rd February for the inter-counties Anglian Cup. It's wonderful to see Freya's dedication and sportsmanship throughout these events, and we can't wait to see all that she does. Congratulations to Freya on her achievements!
