Term 3 has been very busy for our athletics team, with 45 students competing in the North Coast Independent Schools Athletics Carnival at Coffs Harbour last month. A special mention to Class 6 student Matilda Vial for her record-breaking sprints in the 100 metres (13.47 seconds) and 200 metres (28.72 seconds), and to Year 8 student Felix Trapman, who broke the javelin record (31.90 metres).
Despite a very long day - leaving Mullumbimby at 5am and returning at 9pm, it was gratifying to see the students' enthusiasm, dedication and good humour. It was a joy to take so many energetic and engaged students to an inter-school sporting event. Congratulations to the state qualifiers, Keahi Avery-Numa, Isabella Hawes, Matilda Vial and Sol Bailey from the Primary School, and High School students Mika Asherovitch, Charlie Gately, Charlie Heath, Felix Trapman and Ezra Pitman Blackley, who will compete in Sydney this month. We wish them luck.
Big thanks to Michael Lester, Andrew Carter, Chad, Marcella and Trent for helping out on the day, and to all the parents that came along to offer their support.
Watch this space as we prepare for the tennis and Primary School basketball regionals in Term 4.
