The Tour series 2013
12 student from years 7,8,9 and 11 took part in the schools
race at the Woking round of the tour series. First up was the year 7,8 and 9
race in which there where two teams from Winston. Ben Bishop lead the first
time to second after the first lap, before Daniel Harrington stormed away to
give Winston a 300m advantage going into the third lap, but an unfortunate
crash caused by a wet road surface meant that Dan Swords was unable to finish
his lap so the team did not finish although the final man Ieuan Woods was still
allowed to do a lap of the course. The second team rode consistently throughout
the race to finish in the middle of the group.
Next was the year 10-13 race in which there was one team
from Winston made up of year 11s. The first lap by Will Bloxsome put the team
in the middle of the race, Joe Martin than kept the team in 6th
place. The third lap from Scott Porter placed the team in 4th place
behind two teams from Gordons and one from SJB. Kieran Woods then took up the
final lap and closed the gap to second place Gordons and brought the team to
second place.

English Schools Athletics Competition
The Y8 Girls Athletics Team (Ellie Sharpe, Paige Hewitt, Millie
Cave, Ana Richardson, Rosalind Milbourn Katie Warren, Sarah Bindschedler,
Tasmin Martin-Young, Ella Barbato, Victory Ogubuike, Charlotte Gray, Annie
Parkin , and a talented Yr7 Amanda Chimbima) competed in the regional round of
the English Schools Athletics Competition last week and demonstrated excellent
potential.
The competition was an extremely high standard and our girls stepped up to compete against some of the toughest teams in the regions. To name a few performances on the day, Ellie Sharpe had a successful day competing in the 75M Hurdles running 14.4secs and jumping 1.29m in the high jump, Annie Parkins ran a quick 200m with a time of 30.7 secs and jumped 4.15m in the long jump, and Millie cave threw a Javelin a whopping 21.27m and ran a 100m time of 13.5 secs.
The team as a whole raised the bar, but unfortunately failed to qualify for the Nationals this year, however this competition has put them in good stead for the district competitions coming up in July. I’m sure the girls will continue to be committed and work hard to achieve success again next year. Well done to all the team, they all performed extremely well and I’m very proud of them.
