Athletics Carnival

The annual Athletics Carnival was held at Olympic Park, Homebush on Friday 13th June, 2008. Despite warnings of showers, it remained a relatively dry day. The cool weather did not dampen the spirit of Cerdon’s finest athletes. There were some notable performances on the day, with fifteen records broken.

Congratulations to Jacqueline Fry from Year 11, who was able to break seven records in her age group including the: 17 years 100m Final, 200m Final, 100m Hurdles, 100m Open Final, High Jump, Shot Putt and Long Jump. This is an amazing achievement for an outstanding athlete. Perroton house were victorious on the day, having the largest number of participants which helped them to secure the lead. The final points tally for the day:

     1st   Perroton              764
