On Wednesday 24 May Tintern Grammar competed in the Warrandyte South District Cross Country Carnival at Domeney Reserve, Park Orchards. The weather conditions were perfect for Cross Country racing. There were some pre-race nerves, however, once the races started the boys and girls settled and ran exceptionally well in all age groups. There were some exciting finishes to the races with the boys and girls sprinting to the finish line to earn as many points as possible for the school. Congratulations to all of the students who ran on the day. At the conclusion of the event Tintern Grammar placed 2nd out of 10 schools, which was a fantastic result. Congratulations to the following boys and girls who placed inside the top 10 runners, qualifying for the Divisional Cross Country Carnival at Yarra Glen Racecourse on Tuesday 13 June.
