Competitors from Plumstead Manor School excelled in the Greenwich Schools Cross-country Championships, held at Avery Hill Park last Wednesday.
Lisa Hyland won the Year 8 race, while Toni Stembalski triumphed in Year 10.

Holly Beswick (3rd), Gemma Navsa (4th), Nicola Barcoe (5th) and Laura Pearson all attained top-seven places in the Year 8 event, while Lauara Harris finished a commendable second in the Year 9 race.
