Well done to this year's amazing Durham Dash teams! These children competed in either an Athletics carousel or a road race last Wednesday evening at Beamish Museum. All children worked so hard, showing resilience, team spirit and enthusiasm.
A big shout out to Matthew, Louise, Jessica, Mohamed and Dorothy for making it to the final. Gold medals for Mohamed and Dorothy as well as a silver medal for Adam (Y5) in the Athletics field event.
Finally, we would like to thank parents for your support and encouragement. It is lovely to see the school community coming together to celebrate our children's achievements!
