CROSS COUNTRY
Our cross country programme is designed to promote running and fitness among pupils with the goal of helping them to develop a lifelong commitment to running and healthy living. Our programme is tailored to the age and abilities of our pupils and may include activities such as training runs on trails, road, and tracks. We are highly competitive in this discipline and many pupils compete at regional or national level. We are renowned for our stunning cross country course. RHS is one of the venues for county competitions and we regularly host events for local primary schools and clubs.
