Athletics Carnival

2017 House Athletics Carnival

Despite the threat of some horrible weather, our Aths carnival was conducted in cold but surprisingly rain free conditions at Ballam Park. Congratulations to all students who participated in great numbers and spirit on the day. I would also like to thank all staff who performed their roles excellently in trying conditions. Our Sport Captains, Ryan Baker, Sarah Whyte, Mikki Green and Daniel House were also a great support and had a major influence on the success of the day. Congratulations To KIRRANG house who backed up their Swimming success taking out the house competition.
