With incredible performances from all four house teams. Kilimanjaro placing first, runners up Meru, third place Mawenzi and fourth Lengai.
Starting with our hardest course (Red course), our Year 10s and 12s ran this 5km course successfully. With Micah coming 1st in the boy’s race, Marvin 2nd and Kiasile 3rd , all running incredible times. Also, an equally captivating performance from the girls, with Niamh placing 1st , Waitta came 2nd and 3rd place for Robyn.
Going onto the Yellow course which our Year 8s and 9s participated in. With Pendo sweeping in 1st place for the girls, 2nd Stella and Janaina coming 3rd .
