THREE pupils from Stanwell School competed in the annual Schools International Athletic Board (SIAB) international under-16 in Kent.
Richard Lee, Year 11; Tom Atkinson, Year 10 and Jay Morse, Year 10, were selected as a results of their performance at Welsh Schools Athletics Championships earlier this month.
Richard ran in the four x 100m relay and in the 100m event, running a creditable 11.59 seconds. Tom represented Wales in the triple jump, obtaining a distance of 12.40m, despite being relatively new to the event.
Jay threw in the discus competition, where he won a silver medal with a distance of 48.26m. Jay was only one of three Welsh male athletes who won silver or gold.
The pupils have put in a lot of hard work during the year along with their parents and coaches.
