Tintern House Cross Country Carnivals

Tintern Middle and Senior School House Cross Country runs were held at Lillydale Lake over two consecutive days last week. Students competed on a 3km course around the lake and each day culminated with a free B.B.Q, lucky finishing spot prizes and a results presentation. We were blessed with fine weather on both days and students were supportive and encouraging of each other across all events.

Congratulations to the following students who finished in the top three placings and to all students who tried hard on the day to earn valuable points for their House.
