Athletics - Term 1 2011
Athletics Championships 2011
The day was forecast for rain, but it managed to stay away and give us a great day for track and field. Some students competed in nearly every event and there were some very tired competitors at the end of the day.
Congratulations to all of the students who entered and to the staff that ran events on the day, everything ran very smoothly.
