Lancaster and District Schools Orienteering Challenge

There was great competition for top spot yesterday at Happy Mount Park. In the end the winner of the Primary Schools Trophy was St. Luke's Church of England Primary School, Slyne-with-Hest, with Bowerham Community Primary School a close second.
In the Secondary School section Lancaster Royal Grammar School won, with Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy second.
