Our regional schools championships have wrapped up for the year, with more than 1,700 students enjoying a day out across the 9 outings.
The last two events were the Centennial Park gala day where we had 255 students from Rose Bay Secondary College attend, and the Hunter champs at Minmi where a dedicated bunch of 34 students were immersed in the bush.
Individual champions were Mikayla Enderby (Warners Bay High) and Nicholas Rolfe (Lambton High), while the champion school was Irrawang High.
A huge thank you to Denis Lyons and Geoff Todkill who organised and set all the courses on the Tank Paddock map, and to all the Newcastle members who helped with all the other tasks essential for a successful day.
A reminder that entries to the NSW schools champs close on Wednesday August 28. Students must enter via Trybooking.
We also look forward to reporting on the Orange and Armidale gala days which are held in Term 4.
