Cross Country Carnival

On Tuesday 16th May, we held our Cross Country Carnival here at school. We were successful in holding off the rain to ensure the event went ahead as planned. The course takes in aspects of Merri Park, the Merri Creek Trail and surrounding neighbourhoods. The carnival provided students with an opportunity to have an afternoon of fun with friends as well as try out for our Cross Country Team (due to compete in the Darebin Division Carnival on Friday 2nd June).  Those that compete against other high schools in the Darebin Division Carnival have an opportunity to qualify for the Regional and State event to be held later this year.

Congratulations to the students below as well as those securing places in the Darebin Division competition (see attached list).

12 Yrs: Felix Corcoran, Eleanor Sutherland

13 Yrs: Alex Gust, Dulice Breen

14 Yrs: Douglas Buckeridge, Mikaila Young
