Year 8 boys, alongside Max Wharton in Year 9, represented Calder High in the Calderdale Schools U14 Cross Country event at Hipperholme & Lightcliffe. The boys excelled in an event which was made up of Y9 runners all hoping to finish in the top 14 to secure a place in the West Yorkshire Schools Cross Country competition next year.Their individual ability, stamina and determination to compete as a team resulted in excellent personal achievements with Max finishing in 4th place running with a foot injury throughout! Year 8 students were outstanding - competing a year younger: Dan Vile placed 10th, Edan Whitelaw 15th, Finley King 20th and Jack Fillingham 25th.

Max and Dan go through to the West Yorkshire Schools event in February. Cracking performance lads, really well done.

Our girls running as individuals achieved personal best positions with Issy Wharton in Year 7 being our first runner home in 20th place - what a fantastic achievement! Congratulations also to Amy Godden and Anna Craven with commendable individual results.Well done!
