The sun was shining down on us on Wednesday 20 November providing great conditions for the Y78 Athletics Championships at the Tauranga Domain. Aquinas College had 52 representatives across all of the events. One of the biggest highlights of the day was the relays. Aquinas College took out 2nd and 3rd in the Y7 and Y8 relays and finished 2nd in the Championship Relay.
Congratulations to all of our students who competed to the best of their ability, but particularly to those who achieved placings in their races.
