PUPILS from St Andrew’s Primary School, Fontmell Magna, emerged victorious in the Dorset Athletics tournament at Gillingham School.

Their agility, strength and fitness were put to the test in events including relays, speed bounce, triple jump, long jump, vertical jump, obstacle course, chest push and javelin.
Headteacher Debbie Brown said: “Watching our young people thrive in this competitive environment was an absolute pleasure and highlighted so many talented individuals – many of whom lacked confidence and doubted their capabilities, yet they prevailed!”
The tournament win propels the children into the County Athletics final hosted at Purbeck School later this year.
