SATIS Athletics report

On Saturday 23 September ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ»ÆƬ competed in the Sport Association of Tasmanian Independent Schools State Athletics (SATIS) event.

Originally, we found it difficult to find enough people to fill all of our events as the Saturday allocated for the carnival was a very busy one, with other club sports finals, plus school events.

The weather on the day was dreary, with lots of rain and even some thunder. However, because of the kindness shown towards one and other, we created a great atmosphere and it turned out to be a great day.

Initially, we looked at the number of students competing and we began to stress: we thought this would affect our day, but it didn’t. The attitude of every student there on the day was perfect.

No matter what events needed filling, everyone was willing to try their best. At one point, we had Year 7 students filling Year 10 races, without a fuss, just to make sure we filled our entries.

The attitude and leadership everyone carried with them on the day, really showed what it is like to be a part of the Dominic family and strive to be the best we can be, even when we know it is difficult.
