2023 BVPS Cross Country Championships

The Ben Venue Cross Country Championship was our second major sporting event of the year. The course proved challenging for many runners, but some very impressive overall results were posted on the day. 

Congratulations to the following individual champions:

From this carnival, the top 6 runners have been selected to represent our school at the 2023 Armidale Zone Cross Country Championship to be held on 12 May at Bellevue Oval UNE. From there, a squad of Zone representatives will compete at the North West Cross Country Championships. A permission and information note will be sent home soon, including a timetable of events.
