Following the AAGPS Championships many boys competed at the NSW All Schools Athletics Championships at SOPAC, an event that brings together the best athletes from around the State. The boys represented the School with distinction, leading to some outstanding results and many personal best efforts. Most notable were the two new NSW Records set by Charlie Jeffreson (U15 800m 1:55.24) and Lachlan Wood (U14 400m 50.80), two remarkable achievements from both boys.
