College Athletics Carnival

On Thursday 8 June, St Patrick’s held its annual athletics carnival at Campbelltown Athletics Stadium. We were once again blessed with a fantastic autumn day which was in stark contrast to the deluge of rain we received in the days preceding. Participation rates were once again very high, reflecting the hard work and dedication of the PDHPE faculty in preparing the students for the day. Added to this is the supportive and reassuring atmosphere that is evident throughout the day and gives many students the confidence to step outside their comfort zone and enjoy the day in its entirety.  

Once again, there was a wealth of talent unveiled on the day, which made for some very exciting yet friendly competition. A big thank you must go to all students and staff for their efforts throughout the day. I must also comment on the positive feedback I received from the Stadium Coordinator and First Aid Officer about the way our girls conducted themselves in and around the venue. It is always a pleasure to hear such positive feedback. Congratulations girls.

Our Age Champions for the day were,

12 Years – Katarina S

13 Years – Amadee T

14 Years – Piper A

15 Years – Amy S

16 Years – Amelia A

17+ Years – Mercedes S

Overall Age Champion for the day was Amy S.
