Auckland Championships College Sport Cross Country 2025
Earlier this month a determined group of students represented our school at the Auckland Championships College Sport Cross Country event.

Despite a large number of absentees due to illness and some miserable weather conditions, we still had a fantastic turnout and some exceptional performances.

The new course proved a challenge, particularly for our junior girls, with marshalling issues leading to runners taking different paths. Despite the confusion, our students handled the situation well.

Junior Girls

While official placings were disrupted by the course mishap, Abi Bethell (Year 9) was tracking well within the top 10, which is an incredible effort in a race of over 100 competitors. The rest of the junior team competed strongly, showing great promise.

  • 3-Person Team: 3rd Place (Abi Bethell, Noomi Riley, Clementine Coney)
  • 6-Person Team: (Abi Bethell, Noomi Riley, Clementine Coney, Scarlett Main, Harriet Lowe, Lucy Bell)

Intermediate Girls

This group also delivered outstanding individual and team results:

  • 1st – Maddie Worrall
  • 4th – Hannah McManus
  • 3-Person Team: 1st Place (Maddie Worrall, Hannah McManus, Luisa Haines)
  • 6-Person Team: 1st Place (Maddie Worrall, Hannah McManus, Luisa Haines, Grace Larsen, Maggie Croft, Chloe Ulmer)

Senior Girls

  • 3-Person Team: 3rd Place (Sophia Haines, Sophie Pearce, Izzy Coney)
  • 6-Person Team: 2nd Place (Sophia Haines, Sophie Pearce, Izzy Coney, Lucy Gibson, Mia Platt, Stella McElroy)

Congratulations to all students who braved the tough conditions and represented our school with pride. We’re incredibly proud of your efforts and the results achieved across the board!
