Diocesan Cross Country

Last Friday St Mary's sent 48 students to Barraba for the Diocesan Cross Country. It was an early start with the bus leaving at 6:30am followed by the 2 and a half hour drive to Barraba. Once we arrived students helped to quickly set up our tents and then discovered the mice which Barraba has plenty of at the moment. All students were fantastically behaved and a credit to the school.

A special congratulations to Mason Schaefer and Lucy Bible who both qualified to attend  Polding Cross Country at Eastern Creek and the 11 years boys who won the award for best placed school in their age group.
