CDSSA Cross Country Carnival

Last week an amazing team effort from a team of seventy students saw Emanuel School take out the coveted overall Champion title, winning the Combined Districts Secondary Schools Association (CDSSA) Cross Country Champion trophy for the second year in a row!

A chilly day in Centennial Park saw some outstanding performances from our runners:

Gidon Grunseit – first place 13 years boys

Samara Trenaman – third place 14 years girls

Daniel Van Sluys Erlich – third place 15 years boys

Gabriella Goodridge – third place 15 years girls

Jake Hyman – third place 16 years boys

Allegra Goldman – third place 16 years girls

Sophie Doctor – third place 18 years girls

Twenty six of our best long distance runners qualified for the Association of Independent Co-educational Schools (AICES) Cross Country Championships, which were held on Monday at Horsley Park. This was the largest group of Emanuel students to have ever been selected or this prestigious event. A special mention goes to Samara Trenaman in Year 9, who placed tenth in her race and has now been selected in the AICES Cross Country team to compete at the CIS Championships next week. Good luck Samara!
