This Tuesday was an amazing achievement for KDS.

The morning began with 35 students from Years 4-6 pushing themselves in the challenging Cross Country Carnival. Students in Years 4 & 5 were to run 2km while students in Year 6 ran 3km. A historical moment happened when Year 5 student Itai Singer was the first KDS student to win the Balaclava District Cross Country Championship. Itai won the event with plenty of space between him and 2nd position. Mazal tov Itai! Also in the same race, KDS qualified another student, Lucas Zhang, finishing in 7th place. Both students move onto the Beachside Division Carnival on 31 May.

That afternoon three students qualified for the EISM Champions Athletics Carnival. Teal Komornick in Year 11 finished 4th in the open shot put after qualifying in 6th position. Sam Lazarow who qualified in 10th position for the event finished in 4th place. Ruby Page from Year 7 qualified for both high jump and triple jump which is a fantastic achievement and took home the bronze medal in high jump and silver medal in the triple jump.

Mazal tov to all athletes!
