5 SPORT NEWS ORANA HEIGHTS ATHLETICS CARNIVAL On Friday 10 August we held our annual athletics carnival at Barden Park. All students are to be congratulated on their participation and sportsmanship on the day. It was great to see so many students dressed in house colours and cheering on their team mates. A VERY big thank you to all the parents who helped in the canteen and at field events. Your assistance was greatly appreciated. Carnivals cannot run so smoothly without parental help. Congratulations Asha Lake, Marli Pay, Xanthie Chatfield, Bailey Stonestreet, Shanaya Button, Caiden Ah-See, Leo McTiernan, Jayden Naden, Jazmyn Button, Cooper Tidyman and William Bowden on breaking records at our school carnival.
