On Wednesday, 24 October, the High School competed in the 2018 Adventure Race. The race lasted for most of the afternoon and was divided into a variety of categories, challenging students and staff alike. Among the activities were canoeing, swimming, mountain biking, running and orienteering.
Massive well done to Stradbroke who were the overall winners of the day! The anticipation on the day was at an all-time high. After the starting gun was fired, the adrenalin kicked in and inspired some outstanding efforts. Well done to all the winning teams in each of the year level groups. Maybe the heroes of the day were the individuals who took on the challenging course solo. Joshua, Year 11, came in convincing 1st place with a time of 32min. Special mention also to Mr Benard who taught the students a lesson on adventure racing with a win for the teachers. Another significant battle was on between the Tams family with Jaxon, Kalon and Mr Tams racing it out against each other. Some good navigating by Kalon saw him sail over the line in second place overall, beating dad and older brother! Well done also to the first place female solo athlete, only 8min behind the first place male, Tiana, Year 10!
