Under perfect winter skies our school proudly took part in the 2025 LSSSA Cross Country Carnival. The afternoon conditions couldn’t have been better for running, and our 46 students made the most of it, showing resilience, enthusiasm, and a high degree of effort.

Although we finished fifth out of the five participating schools, the result doesn’t tell the full story. Our students demonstrated incredible perseverance and sportsmanship, tackling a challenging course with courage and commitment. 

It was fantastic to see so many of our students not only participating but also cheering on their peers with energy and encouragement. Their presence and positivity helped create a strong sense of team spirit that carried us through the event.

Thank you to Mr Geale and Mrs Partridge for their leadership and organisation in taking the team to the carnival. Their efforts ensured everything ran smoothly and that our students were well-prepared and supported. We also extend our thanks to our Pre-Service teachers Miss Morrisby and Mr Bennett, who played a vital role in supporting our runners on the day. Their encouragement and assistance were greatly appreciated by both staff and students.

While we may not have taken home a top placing, we left the carnival with something even more valuable: pride in our effort, strength in our unity, and memories of a day filled with determination and joy.

Congratulations to all our runners - you represented our school so well. We’re already looking forward to next year’s event!

Congatulations to the following students who finished in the Top 10:
