The boys’ and girls’ teams celebrate their victory!

Teams from Christchurch Academy are cross country champions after they triumphed in this year’s under-11 Stafford and District Cross Country League.

After four races over four weeks, both the boys’ and girls’ teams from the Stone school came out on top.

    Amazing to watch the Christchurch teams. They showed that dedication and teamwork can really pay off. Every single child gave it their all over a grueling four weeks of running in the mud, cold, rain, wind and sleet (week 3!). Well done everyone.
