16 children from Burlington travelled to Carlisle yesterday to represent the Furness district in Orienteering and Tennis. Looking like pro's in their jackets with "Burlington" across the back they competed with pride and outstanding ability in their sporting events.
The orienteering team came 3rd overall with a fantastic array of clear runs ( no mistakes). Sam really impressed us with two clears even though it was his first event (he was standing in as a reserve).
Well done Merryn, Charlotte, Imogen, Carrie, Eleanor, Hattie, Matthew, Sam, Bryn, Ross, Eddie and Patrick.
The tennis team played and won many of their matches making it through out he semi finals. They finished 4th overall - a fantastic result! Well done to Lily, Megan, Jacob and Harvey.
We all also had lots of fun in the opening and closing ceremonies. What a hot and exciting day! Once again I feel proud of your achievements. Your attitude, behaviour, fairness and team spirit was impressive. Thankyou and well done! Now... Time to train for next year...!
