**???? Congratulations to Year 5 – Champions of the XC Fitness Challenge!**

In September, Year 5 took on the cross‑country course at St. Benedict’s School. Each student ran the same route and recorded times, which were then averaged to establish a baseline fitness level.

With the goal of improving throughout the school year, they returned in July to tackle the same course once more. The results were nothing short of spectacular – the class improved their average time by **two minutes**, securing **1st place** in the challenge!

Special praise goes to Troy who clocked the fastest individual time. Well done to every Year 5 student for your dedication, hard work, and outstanding performance!
