🚲🚵Cyclo-Cross🚵‍♂️🚲

On Wednesday 19th April, a selection of pupils from the Juniors travelled to Bamford to take part in a Cyclo-Cross event. When we arrived, each pupil was kitted up in a very fabulous pink bib and selected a bike to ride. The pupils made adjustments so they were in optimal shape to take on the competition.

 

The course consisted of three different sections: the straights where the children could use their speed to swoop past the competition, the tight corners which gave the children a chance to showcase their controlled turning and finally the zig zags that challenged the children to take several corners one after another.

 

The pupils we took were amazing and put 110% into all their races. The girls kicked off the event with their race, seeing our team taking second place and staying as group in the top 10. The boys were up next and managed to weave their way into second and third. In the mixed race, our team cycled hard to take spots in the top 3 and beat a large number of the other 3 teams.

 

To round of the afternoon, the children took part in a relay race where they whizzed with all their might to ride a lap of the course before running to tag the next person. After the relay, teacher and parents had the opportunity to race the children and luckily, Miss Parsons graciously volunteered to captain our team. 

 

We had a great afternoon trying a new sport (for most of us) and cheering on our friends.
