On Monday 19th February a team of 22 pupils from P6 and P7 took part in the Grampian Regional Sportshall Challenge at Moray College in Elgin. Pupils were allowed to compete in a maximum of two field and two track events. Track events were Obstacle Relay, 1+1 Lap Relay , 2+2 Lap Relay, 6 Lap Paarlauf, Over/Under Relay and 4 x 1 Lap Relay. Field events comprised Chest Push, Standing Long Jump. Standing Triple Jump, Vertical Jump, Soft Javelin and Speed Bounce. Applegrove’s team were – Boys : David Spencer, Scott Perry, Bruce Evans, Alistair Clark, Alex Grant, Luca Abbate, Lewis McIntosh, Lewis Dey, Andrew McRitchie, Matthew Hepburn, Magnus McGhee and  Ruairidh Maver Girls: Ashley Donald, Roslyn McRitchie, Talia Pearson, Jessica Nicol, Kirsty Harthorne, Bethany Young, Isla Brain, Alice Reynolds, Lara Mackenzie and  Abigail Taylor. They all had a fun, busy morning and supported each other so well in every event. It was a fast moving event which was so well organised with the help of the students at Moray College.

There were six schools taking part and Applegrove ended up with exactly the same amount of points as Aberdeen school, Hazelhead Primary, and they both came equal first in the competition . Well done to you all for your excellent sportsmanship  and respectful behaviour at the event.
