PUPILS from Abbey Gate College skied their way to success in the English Schools’ Dry Slope Skiing Championships.

The under 19 girls team from the Saighton school achieved the best results to finish in sixth position and they will now represent England in the British finals at the Midlothian Ski Centre in Edinburgh.

Bronze medals were won by pupils in the mixed team category, in addition to a shield for the fastest U14 mixed team.

A total of five teams from the school took part in the championships, three from the senior school and two from the junior department at Aldford.
