East Renfrewshire Cross Country
Today saw the annual East Renfrewshire Schools Cross Country championship held at Rouken Glen Park. A team of 16 pupils from P5 to P7 represented Busby. All pupils were a credit to the school, pushing themselves physically to complete a gruelling, muddy course.
Although we were unsuccessful in terms of collecting silverware, all those involved should be extremely proud of their individual and team performances. They were all amazing!
