On Wednesday 7 May we held our annual House Cross Country Carnival at Lewis Park. Despite the rain we pushed on and saw some magnificent racing. We had over 200 students run which is an incredible amount! I’d like to thank all staff and students involved for their effort in running another successful carnival. We have some fantastic cross country runners at Wantirna.

Congratulations to our age group champions – they will be presented with trophies later this year.
