Balmacewen Athletics Day
By Sophie Napper | Posted: Tuesday October 24, 2017
On the last day of Term 3 we had our annual Athletics Day held at the Caledonian Athletics Track.
Students represented their houses and took part in the following events; hurdles, sprints, discus, shotput, high jump, long jump as well as a interhouse relay competition.
Well done to all students who demonstrated perseverance and personal excellence when taking part in these events.
