Some of the OLA students who competed at the Hills Zone Athletics Carnival.
Yesterday, thirty-nine students represented our school at the Hills Zone Athletics Carnival at Blacktown Sports Centre.
It was a fun day of racing and competition. The participants were standing in their position ready to race. Competitors, take your marks, get set, BOOM went the starter pistol. Each student participated well, showed excellent sportsmanship to their peers and other competitors. Congratulations to everyone on their achievements.
