Amazing effort in the weekend from one of our Senior students – Kennedy Taylor.
She attended the NZSS Cross Country Champs in Hawera over the weekend finishing an incredible 6th out of 112 runners. This is her first year racing in the Senior Girls division which is a fiercely competitive event.
Kennedy was also a member of the Southland team placing second in the Senior Girls relay event – which just so happens to be one of the best results ever from a Southland team at the National Cross Country event.
To make her day even more memorable, Kennedy was named as one of 17 students in the NZSS Cross Country Team – not bad when there were 700 competitors all looking to earn a spot!
Congratulations Kennedy – we can honestly say you are one of the hard working athletes we know, you thoroughly deserve your successes.
