Congratulations to all the students who participated in the District Athletics carnival last Friday.  The weather held out and a great day was had by all.  We had quite a few successes on the day and have 9 students off to regionals next week. Geraldine will have already been in touch with those families of students who made the standards for moving forward with regional athletics.
