District Athletics 2023

Preparations all done, the weather perfect for competition and the students looking the part in their BPS sports uniform our 67-team athletics squad headed out for Duncan McKinnon to compete in the district athletics yesterday.

The competition is open to students who performed well at the house event across grade 4-6. The older students were to be commended on their leadership, support and encouragement of the younger members of the team with Edie Blazey and Hugo Browne leading the way as outstanding Athletics Captains.

The competition is twofold with the students competing on a school level to win the district shield and on an individual basis to progress to the next level.

Congratulations to the students who placed either first or second in their event (names below) and who now progress to the division finals on Friday 6th October, we wish them well. But it is important to acknowledge the effort and determination across the whole squad to represent BPS in the best possible sporting manner and to share in the accomplishment of finishing 4th overall with Hampton PS the overall winners.

Many thanks to Mr. Bennett, Ms. Harris, Ms. Linklater, Ms. O’Donnell and to our wonderful parents Jan Browne and Vanjo Pavlovski. Mrs. Pain
