On Monday, we had 20 students attend the North Otago Athletics and we were lucky with the day as it was not raining. They represented themselves and the school with pride and it was a pleasure to watch them competing against children from other schools.

At assembly today, the children were awarded trophies and certificates from both our own school athletics and the North Otago Athletics.

Congratulations to the following children who received podium placements:
