Athletics Achievements

Congratulations to Oskar Beck and Danielle Rutstein who represented the Association of Independent Co-educational Schools (AICES), competing at the Combined Independent Schools (CIS) Athletics Championships in the last week of Term 3. This carnival is the highest progression level of competition for independent schools in New South Wales and the standard is always very high. This year was no exception and both Oskar and Danielle competed as part of an elite group.

Oskar competed in the javelin event, which he has now competed in for several years in a row. He placed sixth in the event, throwing a very impressive 35.16m. Danielle competed in the high jump event for which she has been training and competing in at a high level on a regular basis over the last few years. She placed fourth in the event, jumping 1.50m. Mazal tov to both of these athletes for their successes. I also wish Danielle and Greg Allen the best of luck for the All Schools Championships in which they are competing this weekend.
