Donald High School House Cross Country 2026
On Wednesday the 29th of April Donald High School students competed in their annual Inter-House cross-country event. This was our first cross-country event since the formation of two new houses: Buloke and Richardson.
In warm conditions that tested a few and on a 3km course along the Federation Trail we witnessed some outstanding efforts. There were some close results across the age groups on the day, some being separated by a single point!
This year Buloke were the overall winners thanks to the large numbers of participation from their House.
House total scores:
1st Buloke 485pts
2nd Richardson 350pts
Individual age group champions and their times are listed below:
| Event | Winner | Time | House |
| Junior Girls | Ellie | 20.17 | Buloke |
| Junior boys | Max | 16.17 | Buloke |
| Intermediate Girls | Layla G | 13.01 | Buloke |
| Intermediate Boys | Hugo | 11.45 | Buloke |
| Senior Girls | Alyssa | 26.50 | Buloke |
| Senior Boys | Luca | 11.28 | Buloke |
Overall, the day was a great success, and all participants are to be congratulated for their efforts and their support to each other.
The Inter school team has been selected and names of those students who have the opportunity to compete in the North Central District Cross Country at St. Arnaud this Friday May the 8th are listed below.
Thank you to all students and supporters who participated and embraced this event.
