Boyd Anderson Ski Race Trial

Extremely well done to all sixteen P6 and P7 pupils who took part in time trials at Midlothian Ski Centre on Tuesday 24th November, to decide the six fastest participants who will compete in the Boyd Anderson Ski Race on Monday 30th November.  Grateful thanks to parents Mrs Helen Ellen (who has initiated a highly successful after school ski racing club for Sciennes pupils at Hillend this year) and Mr Gerry Fox for their expert score keeping and judging as well as transportation of pupils.

Thank you also to Louise Sharp at Midlothian Ski Centre for organising two excellent ski instructors - Alexa and Mark - for the group.

Selection was closely run, with all pupils ski-ing in superb times and all can be justly proud of themselves. Particular congratulations to P6 pupil Cole who secured third fastest time and we hope that the other P6 competitors will be keen to try out next year, too, including those who took part in ski racing today for the very first time.

A genuine pleasure to escort such a commendably supportive, positive group of young athletes.
