WARLINGHAM Park School will once again be playing host to the annual inter-school cross-country competition on Monday (25th) next week.
This closely-fought competition brings together the hottest and most promising running talent from over 15 state and independent sector primary schools in the Croydon and Tandridge educational boroughs.
And this year's event promises to be just as competitive as previous competitions.
Last year, Laverock School clinched a victory for the girls' team with Caterham Preparatory School coming second and Downside and St. David's joint third. For the boys' team, it was success for Caterham Preparatory with Oakhyrst Grange a gallant second and Ewell Castle and Laleham Lea joint third.
In the individual races, the first girl past the post was Bronte Rowlands from Essendene Lodge and the first boy was James Male from Oakhyrst Grange.
And Warlingham Park's Head Teacher, Mike Donald, is delighted to hold the event.
He said: "Our school's extensive sports fields and countryside location make it an ideal venue for this competition and I'm thrilled to be able to host an event that is yet again proving to be so popular."
