Cross Country

On Friday 3rd  May, fifty-six of Greenvale Primary Schools finest runners attended the District Cross Country at Brimbank Park.

In gorgeous, sunny conditions our team battled against other local schools across 2000m and 3000m events.

Top 30 place getters in each race won points for their school, top ten place getters in each race won a spot into the Divisional Cross Country later in the term and the top three place getters in each event were awarded a medal.

The team from Greenvale Primary School represented us with great sportsmanship, athleticism and endurance with many students advancing to the next level of Cross Country and many more winning points for our school.

Some of the outstanding performances were:

10 Year Old Boys: 1st Jake

10 Year Old Boys: 3rd Osman

10 Year Old Girls: 1st Victoria

10 Year Old Girls: 3rd Nethasha

11 Year Old Boys: 1st Omer

11 Year Old Boys: 2nd Ridha

12 Year Old Boys: 1st Matthew

12 Year Old Boys: 3rd Xavier

12 Year Old Girls: 2nd Asli

In the overall standing of schools, Greenvale Primary School placed first as the Champion School for 2019 on a total of 1542 points; retaining the shield for another year.

Thank you to the Ms Dawson, Mr Mura and Mr Magafas for attending the event. Thank you to the parents who came along to support our students and a special thank you to the students for their amazing efforts on the day.

To the students who will continue onto the Divisional Cross Country, we wish you all the best.
