For the
third year in a row, Webster’s did tremendously well in the County
Sports. Although technically one of Angus’ “small” schools, we have over
the last three years finished third, second and now third again in the
county sports, beating all the other small schools and finishing ahead
of the majority of the “big” schools, which have larger numbers of
pupils and thus bigger pools of athletes to draw from. There were some
tremendous individual performance:
Molly Redford (S1) Gold in 1500 metres, silver in long jump, bronze in
relay;
Ella Peters (S2) : Gold in 80 metre hurdles and in the relay;
Caitlin O’Callaghan (S3) Gold in 200 metres and relay, Silver in 100
metres;
Meryl McMartin (seniors) Gold in 100 metres and long jump, silver in
triple jump;
Murray Angus (S1) Gold in 1500 metres;
Rory Starkey (S2) Gold in 400 metres, Silver in 800 metres;
Duncan Reid (S3): Gold in High jump and Triple Jump;
Stephen Cameron (seniors) :Silver in relay; bronze in 100 and 200
metres.
Five pupils from the team have been chosen to represent Tayside in the
inter-area sports championships at Grangemouth: Ella Peters, Aneila
Mellish, Rebecca Morris, Molly Redford and Alastair Turner.
All the above represents a wonderful achievement, not least because the
good behaviour and the team spirit of the Webster’s contingent was
much commented upon. So, many congratulations are due to all the
competitors. A big thank you also to the members of the PE department
and to Murray Angus’ father who has been helping with the coaching.
