Stella Cross Country

The Stella Cross Country Carnival was held on Tuesday 1 April. After days of rain, the weather cleared just in time to create perfect conditions for running. More than 120 students from Years 7 – 12 took part in the races and had a fantastic time!

There were some amazing performances, personal bests and lots of fun out on the course. Stella is lucky to be able to hold our event in such a scenic location and the students were able to see the huge waves as they ran along the beachfront.

The Stella spirit was very obvious, with all of the students supporting each other and cheering their friends along over the course.

Well done to all of the students who participated and a special congratulations to our race medal winners. A team will be selected to represent Stella at the IGSA and CGSSSA carnivals in Term 2.
