With many young people competing in local inter-school competitions this year, we are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport. We are also very grateful to our staff for driving such a rich PE experience for our children, and a special thank you goes to Mr Meakin, our PE teacher.
We are looking forward to another great year of sports at Carrington Juniors!
