The 114th annual Interhouse Athletics Championships took place on Wednesday 3 August, on Rice and Mitchell Fields, with our young athletes competing in a number of track and field events in their respective houses.
Inter-House athletics is always a memorable event for any school athlete, and the day was full of fierce competition in tremendous spirit as Nash emerged the overall winner, with Clayton and Hodgson following in second and third place.
Dustyn Holmes (UV Nash) was announced as the 2022 Athletics Captain, and his mum, Mrs Ronelle Holmes, was our special guest who conferred the medals and trophies to our winners. The boys who performed exceptionally in their respective age groups and race categories will be joining Dustyn and the Athletics Team at the Inter-School meetings next term.
“Being announced as the school's athletics captain is particularly special to me, and I am privileged to lead a team that I have been a part of for the past five years,” said Dustyn. “The upcoming season will be one to remember as we have a very strong and competitive team this year, and I am excited to see what we can achieve and how we can make this team something to be proud of.”
