There has been another round of Cross Country success for Prep School runners at the Dorset and South West Schools Championships. Eight Prep and Senior school runners, selected from the Dorset trials earlier in the month, competed in Truro at the weekend. Ella Morley, Toto Gandiya and Andy Smith from the Prep ran for Dorset against the best 10 from Avon, Cornwall, Devon, Gloucester, Somerset and Wiltshire.

Pupils from year 8 upwards can be selected from this event to go the English Schools Championships to be held at Heaton Park, Manchester on Saturday 20th March. Andy Smith (year 8) Junior Boys was successful along with two Senior School pupils, Beth Cramer and Jess Belford. Andy will compete against the best runners in his category from each county in England. There will be over 300 runners in each race at the event.
