Ellen does Earlview proud in cross country qualifier
Earlview Primary School pupil Ellen Montgomery has qualified for the Northern Ireland Schools' cross country finals.
She finished fourth overall in County Antrim after running three rounds of races across the county.
It’s an even greater achievement given fact she is only P6 - a full year younger than most runners.

The girls started running when Ellen was five and Grace was six, taking part in 5k parkruns.
