And they’re Off! On Friday 20th June St. Joseph’s Grenfell sent a team of 16 athletes to the Western Region Athletics Carnival in Young. Athletes competed in events including the 100m dash, 200m, 800m, high jump, long jump, discus and shotput. 

The carnival in Young was great. Good weather, good food, and good races and events.

We are excited to report that 4 kids from Grenfell made it away to the next level  for the Archdiocese Carnival in Canberra on 21st August.

Congratulations to the relay team which includes Charlie K, Jed M, Arabella B and Emily P. 

Well done to Arabella for also being selected in the 11 year girls 100m dash and 200m.

We would like to thank St. Mary’s, Young for organising and running the carnival. They did a good job at setting everything up and packing it up so shout out to St. Mary’s.

That’s the wrap up of the Western Region Athletics Carnival.
