Years 3-6 Cross Country Carnival

Last Friday the Years 3-6 Cross Country Carnival was finally held after being postponed at the end of last term due to inclement weather. Thank you to the many parents who took time out of their busy schedules to attend the Carnival and support their children.

Student participation rates and the standard of performance in all year levels were outstanding. In every race there is only one winner (unless of course there is a tie).  What particularly impressed me about the participants in all races was the persistence and effort all students put into completing the course and their support for each other.

Some of the things we face in life can be a bit challenging and uncomfortable. Facing these trials with effort and a persistent, “I can do it” attitude as displayed during the cross country races are positive attributes to be applauded and encouraged. A special thanks to Mr Hooper and Mrs Campbell for organising the event and to all the HPE and classroom teachers who helped make the day a success.
