Track and Field Meet

The Roden track and field team competed in the area meet last week with some promising results. Eric D. (Grade 6) and Nicklaus Z. (Grade 5) advanced to the conference finals on May 27th in the shot put event. The grade eight boys (4 x 100M) relay team and the grade eight boys (4 x 400M) relay team also advanced to the conference finals. We would like to thank all the staff who helped with the coaching and supervision this season.
