MALVERN College held the 21st National Prep Schools Cross-country Championships with 960 competitors.
Around 69 schools from as far afield as Kent, Cumbria, Lincolnshire and Dorset took part in the largest day in the event’s history in the town. Better weather made for a good competition as four races across the college campus and Wells Common yielded year group and team winners for under 11s and 13s girls and boys.

Girls under 11s: Darcey Bourne from Danes Hill, Surrey; team: Danes Hill; small schools' trophy: Hunter Hall School, Cumbria; boys: Oscar Millard from Newton Prep, London; team and small schools'
