On Thursday 2 June our team of 85 strong headed to Alderbury Reserve led by our team captains Macy Marshall, Raphael Martino, Ella Pyke, Daniel Gianatti, Lola Vecchio, Tammi Ma, Jack Zagar and Sam Yong for the ACC Cross Country Championships. It has been a very interrupted cross country season but those who represented the College against 78 schools in race sizes of up to 400, left nothing on the track as they tackled the 3km (Year 7 & 8) and 4km ( Year 9-12) courses. This determination saw our girls finish 3rd giving Chisholm a 4th place overall finish which was our best finish in the last 10 years!
Our best individual runners, who achieved an impressive ‘top 50’ finish on the day, are as follows:

This success is a true reflection of not only the student’s hard work, but also the commitment of our coaching team. Thank you to assistant coaches Mr Palmer, Mrs Nicolau & Ms McLlheney, who have given up their time to ensure our students were prepared from training as well as Ms Anderson and Mr Butler who attended on race day. Many thanks also to our VET students who assisted with Wednesday morning breakfasts and Mr Heyes for overseeing the ACC program. Looking forward to setting our sights on a top 3 finish in 2023!
