Athletic Sports

Miss Penny Tattershaw —

What a fantastic day it was! Whomever we put in charge of the weather was spot on, and it was great to see so many parents enjoying the competition and companionship, too.

As always Prep competition ranged from fierce, with individuals competing for top places and championships, to determined, as boys and girls notched up plenty of points for their Houses.

The Junior and Pre-Schools had also been working hard and it was exciting to see the athletes of the future in full flight.  The Junior School managed not to break the tug-of-war rope or any parents this year, but the Y8s broke the principal on the relay home straight!

The eagerly anticipated final Prep House points are:

Girls' School:

1st     Connon     2016 points           Winners of the Chen Cup

2nd    Hart            1749

3rd     Mullan       1630

4th     Dell             1190

Boys' School:

1st     Hansen     1971 points            Winners of the Cook Cup

2nd    Merton    1911

3rd     Gibson      1681

4th     Parr             1077
