SJB Primary School

SJB had 3 runners qualify for the National Primary Cross Country Championships. They were Maddie, Karolina and Noah.

The runners were delighted to receive their Cumbria hoodie and T-shirt for participating in the event. They looked super cool!

The course was a gruelling 2.7km course which was mostly flat but with lots of mud. We had thunder and lightning just before the girls race.

Because it was relatively flat, we had tough and fast races. The runners did really well considering the circumstances. They were up against the best runners in the country.

Hares led the runners around the course and helped if anyone got injured or lost.

Our runners pushed themselves really hard and gave their absolute best. We are so proud of them!

Thank you for your report Robyn.

Year 1 and Year 2 had an epic day out in Grizedale forest. The sun shone brightly all day! ☀️ The children behaved brilliantly, they had fun and they walked very very far! They looked for signs of human and physical features, drew maps and had fun at the park. Well done!

A large group of SJB students and parents watched Barrow Raiders play yesterday.

Barrow Raiders are currently coaching in school and it was great to see the team in action.

Many more photos on the Barrow Raiders webpage.

Proud is not the right word to describe how we feel about our three runners today.

The conditions were far from ideal. MUD! RAIN! THUNDER!

We already thought they were stars but we now think they are superstars after their superb running.

A special mention to Linda Reid for her support in all areas of sport. A particular thank you for her generous contribution to the children’s hoodies.

Year 5 had a brilliant trip last week to UVHS. We got to take part in lots of different lessons.

The children came away very excited for their futures!
