On Thursday, 28 July 2022, Assumption College had several students attend the Border District Track and Field carnival which was hosted by Warwick State High School. This was a fantastic day for the school and our athletes as we had several athletes set new personal bests and many Assumption College students were awarded as Age Champions or Runners Up.

We also had two of our relay teams place first which is another great achievement. Congratulations to Jaz Cruda and Lily Kerlin who were awarded as Runners Up in their age divisions. Congratulations to Sam Wainwright and Denika Murray who were awarded Age Champions in their age division.

A massive congratulations to Denika Murray who also set two new records in Long Jump and the 100m. The 100m record was even more special as the previous record holder was our very own Ms Natalia Webb who was there to congratulate Denika. Overall Assumption College placed 3^rd in the school rankings which was a great effort only made possible by all of our competing athletes.

We would like to wish our 12 year old students the best of luck when they compete at the Southern Downs Athletics carnival on Monday, 8 August 2022.

We look forward to competing at the 100^th Warwick All Schools Track and Field carnival which is to be held on Wednesday, 10 August 2022. Hopefully, Assumption College can move up a couple of rungs on the school rankings through more student participation at this great inter-school carnival.
