Cross Country Carnival
On the last day of Term 1, we celebrated our annual Cross Country Carnival. The top 3 in each year level received medals, and once students completed the 3km course, they had the opportunity to participate in soccer and tech table games, badminton, volleyball, tug-a-war, and numerous other fun activities.
Congratulations to Munro House on a spectacular win!
Athletics Carnival
In Term 2, we celebrated our annual Athletics Carnival, and the energy from our students was outstanding, with strong participation across both track and field events all day long.
From impressive performances in high jump and the long and triple jump pits, to students stepping up and giving shot put, discus, and javelin their best, the enthusiasm was contagious. In particular, the track events saw huge turnouts and the whole school enjoyed some really exciting races!
Concluding some fierce but friendly competition, Munro came from out of the blue and claimed an unexpected, well-deserved victory!
Thank you to all students who got involved and made the day such a success.
