CO-ED CUP ATHLETICS CARNIVAL

On Friday, 17 September, St Michael’s College participated in the Co-Ed Cup Athletics Carnival against several Co-education schools at SA Athletics Stadium. The event is based on participation and having a go at as many events as students were allowed to compete in an unlimited number of events, with students competing in up to six events each on the day.

All students competed fantastically on the day, with many achieving some amazing results. Congratulations to Lachlan Sands (9BPC-06), who broke a carnival record in the Under 14 400m (54.19) and Under 14 long jump (6.1m) and Cooper Raftery (7BPC-06), who broke the carnival record in the Under 13 Triple Jump (11.07m).
