On Friday 1st June 2018 our S1 and S2 pupils attended Hutchesons Grammar High School for the Scottish Schools Relay (4 X 100m) Championships. This was the first year this school has competed in this event! Our pupils ran very well in their teams and were up against the best of the best that Scotland has to offer at these age groups. In particular, our S2 boys team just missed a place in the final (finishing 7th overall).
This was a fantastic day out for the club and all should be so proud of their achievements this year!
