The Scotch JPSSA cross country team travelled to Trinity College, Waterford for the annual Inter-School Cross Country Carnival last Thursday.

On a clear sunny day on a flat course, the students ran to their potential in all the races with the Year 4 students giving the team a strong platform with some solid performances. James Walwaski and Noah Hubble in particular having a good run.

The Year 5 students were committed and kept the team in the running against some strong teams in that year group.

The Year 6 students then performed out of their skin with some amazing runs and personal bests for a number of boys. The Scotch Year 6 team scored the lowest scored total of any year group team for the past five years and the whole team fell just short of the title in what was a most impressive run from a year group.

A special mention to Charlie Warden, Spencer Chapel, Ben Campbell, Abe Prendiville, Cooper Royle and Jack Ashby who ran to their limit in what was a great team effort.
