Cross Country Events (School and WIMS)
Berkley School Cross Country
In the first week of Term 3 we ran out annual Berkley school cross country at Jansen park. We were very proud to see so many of our students giving this a go, and even more proud to see those students who are not competitive runners still running for fun and being amazing supporters for their peers.

Congratulations to our Year 8 senior Girls team who finished 2nd overall. Georgia Taylor placed highest as an individual finishing 4th, and Berkley narrowly missed out on third place school overall. A huge thank you to those students who took up the challenge and took the spots of those who could not make it.
Lastly, our thanks go to the parent drivers and supporters who attended on that crisp, winter day.
