K-6 Athletics Carnival 2025
It was a wonderful day last Friday for our Primary Athletics Carnival. There were so many fantastic performances, from records being broken, to personal best times across the track and field events. Special mention to Pearl Bongardt (Year 3), Beatrice Emanuel (Year 6) and Stasia Serafin (Year 6) for breaking records on the day. A shoutout must go to K-2, whose House spirit, signs and cheering were some of the loudest in recently memory. It was great to see you throw yourselves into the action!
And the winner is…….BARTON!!!
Congratulations to Barton who were the winning House on 260 points.
A big thank you to our wonderful coaches and teachers for making it such a special day.
