• Holy Family Students Compete at English Schools Cross Country Championships

  Mon 16 Mar 2026

  We are delighted to celebrate the achievements of two Holy Family students who recently competed in the prestigious English Schools Cross Country Championships, held this year in Liverpool. This event brings together the top eight athletes from each county, making it one of the most competitive school cross country fixtures in the country.

   

  Lucy represented her county in the Under-17 girls’ race, finishing an impressive 192nd out of approximately 350 of the best athletes in the country. Notably, many of the competitors in this race were a year older, making Lucy’s performance particularly commendable.

  In the Under-15 girls’ race, Heidi also delivered an excellent performance, finishing 155th out of around 350 runners from across England.

   

  Competing at this level is a fantastic achievement and reflects the dedication, determination and hard work both students have shown in their training and competitions throughout the season.

  We are extremely proud of Lucy and Heidi for representing their county and our school at such a high level, and we look forward to following their continued success in athletics.
