Highlands athletics

BURGERSFORT – The students of Highlands College had loads of fun at their very first athletics day on Saturday. Pupils were divided into four teams for the event.

The blue team was called Frost House; the yellow team, Phoenix House; the red team, Highlands House; and the green team, Wyvern.

Flags with dragons painted on them were fluttering in the wind as each member of the school stood tall and proud. Although it was a day of competition, everybody had loads of fun. Because they are a new school, records were set for the first time, and everyone is excited to see who will break them next year. From small to tall, everyone took part and did their very best. Next year’s event is already being planned, and in the meantime Highlands wishes to compete with other schools.
