CHILDREN from Gospel Oak and St Patrick’s Primary School swept into their Easter holidays in delight this week after scooping top trophies at the annual Benchball Championships.

Organised by Camden Schools Sports Association, the competition proved a huge success with seven schools from across the borough turning out to take part in the action. The tourney, refereed by young leaders from William Ellis Secondary School in Highgate, was split into two competitions.

Gospel Oak stormed to victory in the ‘A’ team category, and competition ‘B’ was won by St Patrick’s School, Kentish Town.
