It was another massive win for Park School in the annual Stephen Shield cross country competition at Torrington this term.

The event is entered by all schools in North Devon and again the students from Park were outstanding. The weather did not let us down – wind and rain as always! These wet conditions made it extremely muddy and difficult under foot, but the runners from all age groups persisted and made it a hat-trick of wins.

A mention to two very special athletes who have now ran in their last Stephen Shield; Year 11’s Callum Choules and Rhyan Silvester who have continued to be at the top of their sport throughout – Thank you for your commitment to the team over the past 5 years, you should be very proud of yourselves as I am for all your efforts. My thanks also extends to every student who ran and also to Fiona House and Amy Berry for helping on the day.

 

Mr Blanchard.
