SPC Athletics were held on Wednesday 26th February. Thank you to our staff who did an awesome job out on the track and field and also to our fantastic parent helpers who made the day run smoothly.
Some great House spirit was demonstrated, especially in the Relays and Tug of War. Well done to our House Leaders and other senior students who really had the house spirit pumping.
House points were allocated for placings, records and participation.
The winning House on the day was Finlay! Congratulations.
