Athletics

What a wonderful day we had last Friday! The weather started off a bit wet but we had clear blue skies and minimal wind which made for perfect conditions. All students participated in each event with enthusiasm and great skill, all students should be very proud! Many thanks to the Year 3 and 4 teachers who prepared the carnival with me. Special thanks to the many parents who volunteered and helped the carnival run so smoothly. Also a very special thank you to Merici College for their hospitality and generosity in letting us use their oval for the day. Results are being collated this week and will be shared with the community in the coming week.
