House Athletics
On Friday 10 March, Tintern Grammar held the annual House Athletics Carnival at Proclamation Park, Ringwood. With the weather forecast a perfect 25 degrees, the stage was set for a great day of athletic competition, House spirit and fun. The students gave their best effort in each race, and the atmosphere around the track was enjoyable.
The carnival remained close all day with just 59 points separating first to fifth at the halfway point of the carnival. It all came down to the relay events at the end of the day to decide the winning House. Congratulations to all students on their performance at the carnival competing for their House.
