On Saturday 8th June, 29 students from UVHS were selected to represent Furness Schools in the Cumbria County Athletics Championships at Sheepmount Stadium, Carlisle.

The weather was kind but not perfect with a strong cold breeze blowing all day. There were great performances from all concerned who gave up their Saturday to perform.

Amongst the strongest performances were:

Charlie - 2nd in Junior Boys 200m

Grace - 1st in Junior Girls Javelin

Penelope - 1st in Junior Girls 1500m

Rio - 2nd in Intermediate Boys Long Jump

Lucy - 1st in Intermediate Girls 1500m

Scarlett - 1st in Intermediate Girls Discus

Millie - 2nd= Intermediate Girls High Jump

Marina - 1st Intermediate Girls 3000m

Ellen - 2nd in Intermediate Girls 300m

All those who finished 1st or 2nd will go to Gateshead this weekend to represent Cumbria competing against Northumberland, Cleveland, Durham and Yorkshire. A fantastic achievement.

Also, representing the County will be Jess, Joe, Kira and Georgia.
