I was extremely proud to have both the Y3/4 and Y5/6 Athletics teams in the County Finals today. They enjoyed a colourful and artistic opening ceremony with some inspirational words from Daniel Dixon- a rising star in British Triathlon.

The children proudly wore their orange South Tyneside t-shirts and put in lots of personal best performances in a high quality competition. With lots of Y3 and Y5 children involved, the future looks very bright!

Finally, it was wonderful to see how they were cheered on by lots of parents, who made the journey to Silksworth. Well done to everyone involved for making this a great event!
