Cross country runners at West Hatch High School, Chigwell, got into the festive spirit for their last session before Christmas.

Between eight and 12 pupils have regularly maintained their running along the roads of Chigwell and Woodford setting off at 7.30am with the morning cross country club for the last 13 weeks.

Nikita ​Roberts​ (Year 10), Olivia Roberts (Year 7) and Sebastian Weller (Year 9) have not missed a run on a Tuesday morning.

Running about two-and-a-half to three miles per week means the students have clocked up well over a marathon and for their final session before Christmas went out in festive fancy dress.
