Crompton games success

ON your marks, get set, go . . . speedy runners in the relay race

THEY may be gearing up for it thousands of miles away in China, but for pupils at Crompton House, the Olympic Games took place a little closer to home.

Students at the High Crompton secondary school sweated it out in a series of gruelling sporting trials for their own games, as part of a week of sporting activities.

No sport was left unconquered, as the students embraced the spirit of competition and tackled hockey, rowing on machines, relays and much more.
