Athletics Carnival

What a wonderful 2024 Athletics Carnival we all shared this year!

 

As is the case every year, the help and assistance provided by all staff, and students during the day, made for a smooth and enjoyable event. It was great to see many students dressing up in house colours or for the theme: Movies and/or TV characters. It certainly adds to the energy of the day! The success of 'whole school sport carnivals' usually comes down to participation. This can be as easy as supporting your house, your friends, or getting involved in everything on offer.

 

The following students deserve a special mention for their participation

  • Completing nine events - Ashton Crossman, Connor Jewell, Jack Collins, Ishie Stock and Bailey Rutley.
  • Completing ten events - Puala Botros, Zaine Dyer, Mia Cianci, Matty Holland, and Jadah Koh
  • Completing 11 events - Will Watson, Paisley Stock, Belle Watson and Aemelia Stevenson
