Inter School Athletics Carnival

Well done Kensington on a fantastic team effort to win the inter school carnival.

We had a slow start to the carnival with Kensington placing 5^th after the jumps, throws and 400m events last Tuesday. After the postponing of the carnival to Friday, Kensington came out on fire! Our runners across the board ran brilliantly and the effort continued into the team games. Our Year 1 and 2 competitors were outstanding, winning most of their team games. We finished the carnival by winning the grand relay.

Congratulations to our individual champions in Nevaeh Yr. 3 runner up champion girl, Finn Yr. 4 champion boy and James Yr. 6 champion boy. Well done James on winning the champion boy every year from Yr. 3 – 6, an amazing effort. Thanks to our team managers, helpers and staff who assisted at the carnival, especially Mr Guidi as the starter and Mr Powers as the overall judge.

Thanks to all the parents who came and supported our team.
