ATHLETICS CARNIVAL REPORT
MS SAIGE OTTREY - STUDENT EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES COORDINATOR
On Tuesday the 23rd of August our school travelled to Ken Harrison Reserve to hold our Annual School Athletics Carnival. For many of our students this carnival was the first they had experienced due to the past two years being affected by COVID-19. It was great to see Ken Harrison Reserve full of colour, cheering and activities as all students got involved in the day's events. Mr Hirst and Ms Frame took over the PA system and provided great commentary all day, updating the scores and results.
There were some fantastic achievements throughout the day and the following students were awarded Age Champion:
12/13 Female: Lily Scott 108 points 12/13 Male: Julian Muir 118 points
