More county finalists

Burlington will be representing the Furness area for tennis and orienteering at the County School Games finals on 1st July. Our year 3 & 4 tennis team have been selected after their fantastic results at Dowdales and Ulverston tennis centre. Having Gary Weatherburn to work with our school has been a real help. Well done to Jacob, Harvey, Lily and Megan!
We therefore now have 16 children going to the games ...we have the largest number of children going and we are the smallest school to qualify in this area!
Thankyou to the PTA who are helping us to top up the school team kit so that we look and feel the part. We will have Burlington across the backs of the team jackets...very smart.
We are nearing the end of our competitions for this year. We have entered more children in more events and had more success than ever before.  We have actually got quite a reputation in the area for our sport ( one teacher asked me what we put in the water in Kirkby!). Though as I always tell the teams...the comments that come in (at every event) about how lovely our children are, makes me more proud than a win ever can ( though wins are up there also!)
Well done everyone!
