Galston High School and Greenwich Public School are the proud new titleholders after a very windy annual Sydney North schools championships at St Ives Showground on Monday.

Galston have been coming for a few years now and built on their preious experience to unseat Riverside Girls. In the primary division, Greenwich had two Garingal juniors leading the way.

All up we had more than 240 entries, with a big increase in primary school numbers. Great to see some follow-through from the programs we have run at Mimosa PS and Lindfield East PS in particular.

A big thank you to Barbara Hill for organising, Terry Bluett on SI, and all the coaches and other helpers who ensure the students had an enjoyable day.

And a reminder that entries for the annual NSW Schools Champs close next Monday (August 14). This year we are in the Illawarra - see the flyer for details.

Sydney North was the last of our regional championships for 2017 - but we still have gala days to come in Term 4 in Armidale (Oct 20) and Orange (Nov 3).
