Oxford Area School Year 5-8 Duathlon

OAS —

Oxford Area School Year 5-8 students participated in the school Duathlon.

On Tuesday 13th March we managed to get better weather and hold a very successful Duathlon event for our students. Students wishing to compete in the Canterbury Duathlon later in March, had to enter the individual event along with others keen to challenge themselves. The rest of the students made teams of 2 or 3 to compete in the team events. All was possible due to great support from parents who offered to support the staff to be marshals on the course. Thanks to Julia Graham, Anita Stubbs, Jeremy Kortegast, Annette Slemint, Janette Griffiths, Kate Cronin, Rachel Tyson, Sonya Miller, Tasha Galway and our recorder, Jodi Glassford. Results were:
