On Friday, 28 March, we held our annual Athletics Carnival at Landy Field. We were blessed with warm weather and an incredible turnout, which unfortunately meant we ran out of time for presentations at the end of the day. Still, the atmosphere was electric, with students eagerly participating in a wide range of events.

The High Jump was especially popular, with long queues forming as students pushed themselves to new heights. Across the field, students threw their support behind their House leaders, showcasing great spirit and determination. Participation was strong across the board, with all students required to register for events ahead of the day — a change that helped things run smoothly and encouraged wider involvement.

Our Year 12 students truly embraced the spirit of the day, donning all sorts of creative costumes for their final Athletics Carnival. The traditional run down the 100-metre strip was a highlight, featuring everything from inflatable cartoon characters to princesses — a truly memorable and entertaining sight.

A huge thank you goes to our student leaders, who did a brilliant job encouraging House participation and fostering a fun, competitive spirit. It was a wonderful day of athleticism, House pride, and community.

Two records were broken on the day, both by Leah B in Year 10. She set a new record in the 100 metres and also broke a 19-year-old record in the Year 10 Long Jump — an outstanding achievement!

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Gift Championship could not be run. Instead, the title was awarded to the top-ranked 100-metre sprinter on the day — congratulations to Leah B (Year 10) on receiving this honour.

Finian once again won the Championship.

A huge thank you to all the staff for their continued support and work behind the scenes in getting the many jobs done to ensure the athletics carnival is a success. Congratulations also the Student Leaders who help the many students out for a smooth running of the day and fielding the many relay teams.
