Hi all, it’s been a very busy sporting term. 

Many of our Grade 3-6 athletes competed in the District Cross Country. Twelve schools attended, and it was an amazing day. Many children achieved Personal Best results. Our Juniors finished 4th and our Seniors 1st. Overall we placed 2nd, which was a fantastic result. Many students finished top 10 with: Oscar H and Zac P coming 1st, and Pippa B, Gemma G and Lucy W coming in 3rd.

We also participated in the District Track and Field days. Once again, the students performed brilliantly.
