District Athletics Carnival

Last week, approximately 90 Pacific students represented the College at the District Athletics Carnival at the University of the Sunshine Coast. It was great to see our students competing well against the other Independent Schools on the Sunshine Coast. Overall, Pacific finished in seventh place, out of the 11 competing schools.
