"Cross-country running is the ultimate test of how far your mind can take you when your body wants to quit." — Meb Keflezighi

Our Cross Country athletes continue to make us incredibly proud with their unwavering dedication, determination and grit. Every training session, every race and every kilometre covered is a testament to their hard work and perseverance. They push through every challenge with courage and heart, proving time and again that they are truly "Tougher Than the Rest."

We are proud of each and every athlete who wears our school colours with pride. Keep chasing your goals, inspiring those around you and showing everyone what it means to never give up. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️💙💛
