Diocesan Athletics Championships

On Friday the 28 July a small group of highly talented and dedicated athletes represented the College at the Wollongong Diocesan Championships held at Campbelltown Athletics Stadium.

All girls gave their best and performed extremely well on the day which saw the College achieve highly overall. It also saw a number of individual students being acknowledged as Age Champions at the end of the day. Congratulations to Charlie H who was the 15 years Overall Age Champion, Hannah S who finished 3rd in the 15 Years age group, Cora W who also finished 3rd in the 16 Years age group and Amy Y who was the 17+ Years Overall Age Champion.

These championships also acted as a pathway event and saw five St Patrick’s students qualify for the Wollongong Diocesan athletics team that will contest the NSW Combined Catholic Colleges Championships later in the term. Congratulations to Charlie H (Long Jump and High Jump), Olivia L (Shot Put), Hannah S (100m 200m and 400m), Cora W (200m and Long Jump) and Amy Y (Javelin and Triple Jump) on their selection.

A massive thank you must also go to team manager Mr Duval for his work with the girls on the day.
