Milton Abbey's Prep Schools Cross Country sees local schools triumph!

Milton Abbey School's annual Prep School Cross Country competition took place on Tuesday 20th February on a gloriously sunny winter's afternoon with the Abbey providing a stunning backdrop for the many youngsters taking part from nine local Prep Schools.

The Milton Abbey cross country course is well known for providing quite a challenge for competitors with its off track route around the school grounds and up in to the woods – however the views of the stunning  Capability Brown landscape more than make up for the exertion needed and  muddy trainers!

The schools taking part were Sandroyd, Hanford, Knighton House, Leweston, Forres Sandle Manor, Sunninghill, Salisbury Cathedral School, Castle Court and Chafyn Grove.

 
The children competed both individually and as teams and three schools came out as clear winners across all the age group individual and team categories:  Hanford, Sandroyd and Forres Sandle Manor.   Many congratulations to all who took part!
