Interschool Cross Country – Bruce Rock
Following their outstanding performances at last week’s Faction Cross Country, 18 students travelled to Bruce Rock to represent our school in the Interschool Cross Country Carnival. Competing against a number of other Wheatbelt schools, our students faced very strong competition, with every runner giving their absolute best on the day.
It was perfect running conditions, but the course was challenging which tested endurance, determination, and perseverance, and our students rose to the occasion with courage and commitment. There were some outstanding individual performances, with 15 of our runners placing in the top 10 in their age divisions.
Congratulations to the following individuals who placed
8/U Boys
2nd Mitchell Mills
3rd Quinn Wahlsten
10/U Girls
1st Ava Webb
2nd Tahlia Govender
4th Maggie Gray
11/U Boys

Overall St Mary’s placed Second in the Primary Division and Third overall.
Beyond the results, it was the students’ sportsmanship, encouragement of one another, and pride in representing the school that stood out most. Each participant contributed to a wonderful team effort and should be extremely proud of their achievements.
We sincerely thank the staff, parents, and volunteers who supported the students throughout the day. Your involvement is always appreciated and plays a vital role in the success of these events.
