Term 2 2019-20

Our Year 5 & 6 cross country teams competed in the Oxfordshire School Games County finals this week. The event took place at Radley College in Abingdon with 14 other schools from across the County taking part. Over 100 athletes competed in each race over mixed terrain. Great determination and self belief was demonstrated by our pupils with many slips and trips around the course due to the recent rainfall. Overall our boys finished 8th and the girls 10th. Congratulations to all our runners - we are so proud of you!

At last some winter sunshine greeted the North Oxon Cross Country finalists last Friday afternoon. Some determined performances from ALL our runners as the conditions underfoot were quite tricky due to all the rain we have had.
BLS had top 10 individual finishers in the year 1/2 girls, year 3/4 girls, year 3/4 boys and year 5/6 boys races. Great team results in year 5/6 meant that the girls finished in overall 3rd place and the boys finished 1st - North Oxon Champions! Congratulations to everyone, you made all the staff extremely proud as you represented Bishop Loveday in such a wonderful way.
