There was a carnival atmosphere on the front fields of St Andrew’s College for the Secondary School Athletic Sports Day, which attracted enthusiastic participation from students.

House chants got the day off to a great start, with students resplendent in their House colours. The novelty races were a way for all to get involved, and the College’s more competitive athletes did not disappoint with some wonderful displays of speed, perseverance, strength, skill, and technique.

Titles in the track and field events were well spread across the athletes, with several students picking up multiple titles. The Pipe Band display was a fitting end to a fantastic day of fierce competition and wonderful school spirit. It was a great week for Rutherford House, which won the Champion House Cup at both the Athletic Sports Day and Swimming Sports.
