Wentworth College was one of the first local schools out of the blocks with its annual cross country run, held at Shakespear Regional Park on April 12.
All students from Years 7 to 13 took part. With Cyclone Fili building in the background, but not postponing the day, the juniors ran a 3km circuit, and the intermediate and senior students ran 4km.
The option of a walking route saw whole school able to take part. As it always does, the steep hill-climb near the start of the course proved to be a challenge.
There were some impressive performances, with three school records broken.


Emily Treble broke her own intermediate girls’ record, as well as coming 4th overall.

Orion Houseman and Liberty Jones cross the finish line

Matthew Rist, Year 13, was the senior boys record breaker.
