Primary Zone Athletics Carnival
Congratulations to all the students that travelled up to Glendale on Monday to compete at the THACCCSA Zone Athletics Carnival.
We had some outstanding results throughout the day across both track and field events. The team can be very proud of their effort with many now qualifying for the CSSA State Carnival on Friday 2 September.
I’d like to thank Mrs Graham, Mr Cantor and Mr Lambert for accompanying the team to Zone on Monday and in particular Mr Lambert who spent many hours entering data online in preparation for and during the carnival.
The State team will be finalised over the coming weeks with information sent home to parents shortly after.
