Earlier this afternoon, Whitemoor competed in the semi-finals of the Y5/6 Sportshall Athletics event, held (once again) at Harvey Hadden Sports Village. 

 

The opposition we faced this time around was of a much higher standard - with the original 45 or so schools who entered their respective heats being whittled down to just 13 schools. 

 

Team Whitemoor dealt magnificently with this increased challenge it must be said - displaying true grit and determination in all the different events (covering sprinting, jumping and throwing). In the end, our boys and girls hard work was rewarded, with Whitemoor finishing in 2nd place, thus qualifying for the next round.

 

Finger crossed that we can finish in the same position (or better!) come the finals in a few weeks time...
 

Today's Y5/6 Sportshall Athletics team consisted of: Lucas S, Jordan N, Harley J, Zak P, Ryan B, Martell E, Riley D, Jahmar C, Tyrai E, Kiyan A, Ticianny M, Minky D, Alawrae K, Makeda M, Sienna H, Alyssia N, Kuleni S, Glennisha B, Doha A and Katie A.
