Sports News

What a great way to finish off the term with our whole school Cross Country. The students did an amazing job putting into practice all the training they have been working on over the past few weeks in their lessons. We saw some outstanding performances, with students showing the Tally Way spirit through their determination and resilience on the course.
Thank you to all the parents who came along and cheered on our runners - it created a fantastic atmosphere. A big thank you also to our teachers and Scotty, our groundsman, for their efforts in ensuring the event was safe and enjoyable for everyone.
We will be presenting our Age Champions and announcing the winning house at assembly after the holidays.
