Years 3-6 Cross Country Carnival
A break in the unrelenting rain that we have seen for the first part of this year, greeted us with clear blue skies and great weather conditions for the annual Years 3-6 Interhouse Cross Carnival held last Friday morning. Construction work to the entrance of the Meridan Sporting complex also saw a change to the course this year with both the start and the finish situated on the College’s Main Oval. It appeared that this led to an increase in spectator engagement with parents and students up close to both the start and finish areas to cheer the runners on.
Well done to Wira house who were awarded the Spirit Trophy for some outstanding cheering and house spirit they displayed throughout the carnival. Wira were also crowned the overall champion house at the end of the carnival.
House results at the end of the carnival were as follows:
Wira 1st - 343
Bula 2nd - 321
Mumba 3rd - 286
Buran 4th - 270
Congratulations to the following students who finished in the top three places for their age group.
