St Mark's Stars
CROSS COUNTRY STAR
Congratulations to Year 12 student Charli-Rose, who not only represented WA at the National Cross Country Champs in Canberra over the weekend but also led the team as the WA Captain. She has continued to make us proud by achieving a bronze medal in the Under 20 6km Race and a bronze for the relay.
Well done, CR!
SWIMMING SUCCESS
Congratulations to Year 8 student Jemma and Year 9 student Mackenzie, who competed in Sydney last week, representing St Mark's and WA at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre. It was a great experience competing as part of Team WA.
They swam some impressive PBs through the heats as well as in the finals and thoroughly enjoyed their time competing interstate.
Well done, girls!
