GRADE 11 St Mary’s DSG, Kloof learner, Tayla Kavanagh, is a talented athlete and was chosen as the high school’s SPAR Star of the Month.

Tayla successfully won every one of the seven inter-school cross-country fixtures over the course of the season and recently won the Forest Hills 10km race in a time of 37 minutes and 24 seconds. Not only is this time an astonishing achievement, but Tayla ran as a junior in an open race.
