Athletics Carnival

Even though the wind played havoc in the scoring tent and prevented any record-breaking performances, our Centenary DLS Athletics Carnival proved to be a fine day for all involved. Participation and friendly competition amongst the students was positive and congratulations to the following Homeroom Teachers for guiding their boys to victory in 2012: 7 Benilde and Ms Desmet, 8 Vincent and Mrs Roe, 9 Roland and Mr Alexander, 10 Benilde and Mr Larsen, 11 Jerome and Ms Neil, and 12 Hegarty and Mr Hogan. A major College carnival like athletics cannot run smoothly without the work of all staff on the day in their particular roles. The crowd was very well informed and entertained all day by Craig Willis (aka Tim Ford). Special thanks to all the Music and MMEC Staff who worked tirelessly all day as well as those staff who worked on Field Events throughout the day — your diligence and patience is much appreciated. The electronic recording programme and Carnival Booklets were superbly created by Peppe Di Ciccio. Final thanks goes to my Sport Assistants, Simon Brown and Tom Curry. Not only did they really ‘fire’ on the day but did a power of work before and after the Carnival to ensure the overall success of the day.
