Primary Athletic Event Update
We have now completed all the discus catch up events from the Athletics Carnival and will now focus on shot put. This is again reliant on good weather.
I hope to have all of this completed by the end of the term and will then be able to work out Age Champions, winning House and the squad for Zone which is scheduled for August 1 (next term). Thank you for your patience.
Athletics and Cross-Country Awards
These will be presented together at a Chapel service early next term once all the athletic events have been completed.
CIS Cross Country Carnival
On Wednesday we had three runners from GPCC represent CSSA at the Combined Independent Schools (CIS) carnival. Congratulations to Nash P, Ulrich E and Chase C who each ran a great race against some very tough competition.
CSSA Gymnastics
Congratulations to Allegra N who attended the CSSA Gymnastics trials in Sydney last week. Allegra had a great time and was very pleased with how she performed on the day. She has now experienced some valuable preparation in time for a busy gymnastics season. Well done, Allegra!
