Primary Cross Country Carnival

Our Primary Cross Country Carnival  was held at Queens Park on Tuesday 7 March. With a shortened program due to a hot day on forecast, it was fantastic to see so many girls get out there, get outside of their comfort zone and get sweaty and show some grit. Well done to all girls who ran either competitively or in the newly formed “Fun Run”. All girls displayed enthusiasm and gave their best effort running and cheering on their House.

Thank you to the Primary staff, Sports staff and coaches for their help around the track and a special thank you to our Cross-Country captains who worked closely with the staff and coaches to help ensure the Carnival ran smoothly.

Congratulations to the following girls:
