What a brilliant day of running was witnessed at the Primary Cross Country Carnivals on Wednesday 29th April.
The headline victory belonged to Taylor, who broke through for their maiden Prep–Year 2 Cross Country Carnival win. Their success was built on outstanding performances, including top‑three finishes in the Prep Boys (King, Zion and Anthony), Prep Girls (Simeonette) and Year 1 Girls (Petra).
Earlier in the day, Stanway lit up the course, with Frederik F (Year 3), Jaiden A (Year 4) and Lincoln M (Year 5) each claiming victory for Stanway House. Judson once again proved the benchmark for consistency, finishing second in both carnivals, supported by many strong performances across the board.
Carey also competed strongly throughout the day, with Kaiden S (Year 1) providing a highlight as he crossed the line in first place.
