Congratulations to all students who competed in both the competitive and novelty events. There was certainly an abundance of community spirit and everyone had an enjoyable day. It was wonderful to see so many girls participating in all of the events and our senior girls leading by example. A big thank you to all the parents, students and staff members who helped make the day a success.
