The school athletics carnival is an important event in the school calendar. It is a day of fun and competition, where students compete against each other in a variety of athletic events including sprints, jumps, throws and long distance.
The overall atmosphere of the day was one of excitement and enthusiasm. Students were cheering on their peers and housemates, and there was a sense of healthy competition in the air. The weather was as perfect as it could be, with not a drop of rain and no wind.
Well done to our year 12 on their excellent attendance and participation at their final school athletics carnival. The theme for Year 12 was Movie and TV Stars of the 80's, and they went all out with amazing costumes. The year group were outstanding role models for our junior students and completely immersed themselves in the theme and positive spirit of the carnival.
There were many winners on the day, with students excelling in different events. Congratulations to all students in SERPERTINE house. After coming 5th in 2023, Serpentine were 2nd last year and this year have taken the GOLD.
1st Serpentine 907
2nd Duneba 747
3rd Wanganaui 658
4th Hunter 539
5th Kirk 511
The carnival was well-organised, with clear instructions given to students and teachers, and efficient running of the events. Thank you to Mr Williamson for his organisation of another great carnival and to all the Year 10 PASS students for their assistance at each event. We are very fortunate to have capable, respectful and reliable students to help run this major school event.
Special mention to our Age Champions, Record Breakers and all athletes that will now progress to the Sutherland Zone Athletics Carnival.
