A huge congratulations to our very own Katie Edwards (Head of Sport 7-12).

At the recent Athletics NSW Open Championships, Mrs Edwards was named the Athletics NSW International and Domestic Para Coach of the Year.

On behalf of the Pymble community, a big congratulations to Katie, a just reward for her years of dedication towards the sport of Athletics.
