P6 and P7 Cross Country

A huge congratulations to our P6 and P7 pupils who participated in this year's Large Schools Cross Country Competition! TeamLPS were outstanding from start to finish, earning praise for their dedication, exemplary behaviour, and sportsmanship—cheering on every runner from every school until the very last competitor crossed the finish line. It was truly lovely to witness!

We are thrilled to share that Jude and Iona secured top 10 finishes in the P6 Boys’ and Girls’ races, qualifying for the SLC Schools Cross Country Finals at Chatelherault Park. Both delivered fantastic performances there as well, with Jude achieving an impressive 3rd place finish and contributing to a Clydesdale Team gold medal win!

A huge well done to everyone who took part—we couldn’t be prouder of you all!
