Cross Country

We all had a great time down at cross country even though it was a blistering wind! All the children participated and I was so proud of them all.
Our extra special champions were:
Meile-Rose who won the Year 4 Girls
Ben Yeoman who won the Year 4 Boys
Levi Higgins who placed 4th in Year 4 Boys

These students will be going to inter-school champs so well done!
