Teams from Hexham Middle School and Queen Elizabeth High School both qualified through the first round to compete in the regional finals of the English Schools’ Track & Field Cup.
Students from the Hexham federation travelled together by coach to Claireville Stadium in Middlesborough. The teams competed against schools from the whole of the North East region comprising of Northumberland, Durham, Tyne & Wear, Teesside and Yorkshire.
It was a great day out with the students pushing themselves to the limit in search of individual and team glory. There were a number of individual winners with the team results decided by times and distances being converted to a standardised score.
Well done to both teams!
