Interschool Athletics Carnival 2023

 

On Wednesday the 18^th of October over 100 student athletes travelled to the State Athletics Stadium to represent Mount Lawley in the annual SSWA Interschool Athletics Carnival. We were met with a perfectly sunny day and students were excited to get competing. This year was especially exciting being our first year in A division in several years.

 

We started the day quite strongly with some good results in the long-distance running events as well as field events holding 4^th position overall. Throughout the day all students performed their best and walked away with some excellent results. Heading into the relays we were unsure where we were sitting overall. After some clean baton changes and two relay teams finishing top three, we were announced as finishing 4^th overall meaning Mount Lawley will stay in A division next year! All the early morning training sessions and the training day had paid off and resulted in an exceptional result for the school.

 

 

We would like to acknowledge some fantastic individual performances from the day: Year 11/12 Champion Boy - Harry Year 8 Runner-up Champion Boy - Marco Year 11/12 Runner-up Champion Girl - Sophie Year 9 Runner-up Champion Girl - Tayla Year 10 Runner-up Champion Girl - Ronia

 

All students were fantastic ambassadors for the school. HPE would like to specifically congratulate Mackenzie (Year 12) for being elected Interschool Athletics Captain and thank all Year 11 and 12 students who took time out of their busy study schedules to represent the school, we would not have achieved this fantastic result without you. Well done to all.
