JPSSA Interschool Cross Country

On Thursday, 22 June the Junior School boys competed in the JPSSA Interschool Cross Country out at Hale School. The course was full of hills and sand and proved to be a very challenging course for all competitors.

 

The highlights of the day were the Year 4 group who very narrowly came 2nd overall for the category and showed what a strong group they will be in the future. Our Year 6s were great leaders and have been throughout all the training sessions and were great role models for the younger students.

 

Thank you to all the parents for their support on the day and getting their sons to training nice and early on those cold mornings. It was a great day to be a part of!
