Cornwall School Games- Finalists

It was a proud day for these three students from Nansloe who competed at the Cornwall School Games Cross Country Finals last week. To compete at the highest level in Cornwall and all finish inside the top 20 for your age group is a remarkable achievement. 

Round 5 Results

Below you will find the results for Round 5 of the cross country season held at Helston School. A number of children from Nansloe were running their 4th and 5th race of the season meaning they are on course to achieve the endurance medal later this year. As always thank you to the parents for transporting the children. 

Magnificent Seven

A big well done to the 7 children from Nansloe who qualified to represent the Helston area at the Peninsula Cross Country Event.

Cross Country will now take a break for the winter and return again in March. Below you can find the results for the last two races and the league table for all of the schools involved. It has been fantastic to see so many children from Nansloe competing and scoring points to the school. We are incredibly proud of all of the runners and particularly those who turn up for each race and are determined to beat their personal best. 

Last Tuesday was the second cross country race of the season hosted by Helston. This event gave the KS1 children an opportunity to have a taste of competitive cross country and hopefully encourage them to take part when they reach Year 3. We had over 35 children take part in the event and as a school scored over 1,200 points which is incredible. It was also fantastic to see so many new faces representing the school for the first time. Below you can find the race positions for the children from Nansloe and the current league table. The next event will be at Porthleven on Tuesday 16th October.

Congratulations to all of the children who took part in the numerous races across the cross country season. As a school we set a new record with 12 children receiving the endurance medal for taking part in 5 or more races. We also had a number of children who finished as a top 3 point scorer for their age group. 

Race 3 Porthleven

Nansloe were again well represented at the third cross country event of the year. Harry, Poppy and Daisy finished inside the top 10 for the third consecutive race! Well done to all of those that ran. 

26 Children took part in the second cross country event of the season. There were top 10 finishes for Poppy, Tom, Max, Harry and Daisy. It was also great to see some children representing Nansloe for the first time. Well done to all of the runners. 

Over 20 children from Nansloe Academy took part in the first cross country race of the 2017/18 season hosted by Porthleven. Harry, Max, Toby, Poppy and Daisy all finished in the top 10 in their races. The full results can be found below.

After recent poor weather and a number of cancellations the Cross Country League was back underway with the fourth race of the season held at Mullion School. Josh (4th), Harry (6th) and Ethan (9th) were all top 10 finishers in the Year 5/6 boys race. Last year as a school we reached a total of 4259 points. This year we are currently on 3448. Let's see if we can pass that score by getting as many children as possible competing in the final 2 events of the year. 

Helston held the penultimate race before the Christmas break where a number of children were taking part in their 3rd race of the year. Tom had his 3rd top 10 finish this year finishing 9th in the Year 3/4 race. Josh also managed his 3rd top 10 finish coming 5th in the Year 5/6 race. 

St Michael's School held race 2 for the first time and it turned out to be a tough but enjoyable course. Well done to Tom who finished 4th in the Year 3/4 race and Harry and Josh in the Year 5/6 race who finished 5th and 7th respectively. 

Cross Country Returns

The Cross Country League returned for the 2016/17 season at Mullion. As usual Nansloe was well represented with a number of Year 3 children taking part for the first time. Stand out finishers were Tom who finished 6th and Charlie 10th in the Year 3/4 race and Josh (6th) and Harry (10th) in the Year 5/6 race.

Congratulations to Harry and Scarlett who represented Helston at the Peninsula cross country event at Pool Academy on Monday 7^th March.  Harry and Scarlett were competing against runners from schools from Mullion, Falmouth, Camborne, Redruth and Truro. The standard of this competition was extremely high with some runners representing Cornwall for their age groups. Harry finished 31^st out of 72 runners in his event and Scarlett finished 12^th out of 69 runners in her category. As Scarlett finished inside the top 15 she will now go on to represent the Peninsula area in The Cornwall School Games next week. Everybody at Nansloe is enormously proud of the pair of you.
