MRS Bardsley and eight talented students attended the semi-finals of the Schools' Biathlon Champ­ionships at Millfield, Plymouth on Sunday, January 27.

Students completed either a 500m run and 50m swim, or a 1,000m run and 100m swim depending upon what age group they were in. All had qualified from the initial times submitted from all schools in the West of England — ranging from Birmingham down to Sussex and across to Cornwall — so a very big area.

Budehaven's Year 9 girl Molly Mees was up first with her 100m swim, posting a very competitive time of 1.12.41.
