National Biathlon Qualifier Round up

On Sunday 33 girls from year 3- 6th form and even teachers (Mrs Purgavie!), took part in the National Schools Biathlon Qualifier, hosted by Downsend and Notre Dame. It was a great morning of sport for the girls, all of whom gave 100% in both their swimming and running.

We now wait for December/ January to see who has qualified for the National Finals in March.
