Cross Country Term 2 Overview
JSSATIS Carnival
The JSSATIS Carnival was held on 10 June, featuring a brand-new course at Crossroads, Soldiers Memorial.
The weather held out until the very end, making for a very wet and cold bus ride back to school. Despite the challenging conditions, all students were outstanding and adapted to the new course beautifully.
Congratulations to all students who participated, and special recognition to our top finishers:
- Year 3 Boys – 3rd
- Year 3 Girls – 14th
- Year 4 Boys 4th and 9th
- Year 4 Girls – 5th
- Year 5 Girls – 1st, 5th, and 11th
- Year 6 Boys – 3rd and 18th
All Schools Cross Country
We had only the one student compete in the Secondary All Schools Cross Country this year. Our Year 7 female student completed the course in an impressive 13:45, finishing strongly in 16th place out of 154 participants.
At the Primary All Schools Cross Country, our seven students all rose to the challenge. Every student performed exceptionally well, with five of our runners placing in the top 20.
STCPSSA Carnival
The STCPSSA Carnival officially marks the end of the Year 3–6 Cross Country season. After being postponed due to inclement weather, our team finally had the opportunity to compete in their second inter-school carnival on Friday, 26 June.
The weather was perfect, with multiple students finishing in the top 10.
