Athletics Carnival - Wrap Up

Our annual school athletics carnival was held on Friday the 26th of June at The Golland Fields with great success. We had a beautiful day of fun and sport with athletic talent on full display by all students. It was wonderful to see so many parents and carers there over the course of the day and our students made us proud, displaying outstanding sportsmanship and team spirit throughout the day. Congratualtions to all championship winners.
