High School fencers, Sean, Angus, Rafello and Jasper became performers last week giving our Class 5 and 6 students a lesson and demonstration of the finer points of fencing. Students had a chance to handle a foil and learn about the equipment, rules and tactics to successfully win what the group described as a "cross between boxing and chess while holding swords!"
Yr 8 Gabriel F. performed exceptionally well at the Parkour Grand Prix One recently, placing 2nd place in the speed run and 5th place in the freestyle event. Gabriel’s excellent performances have qualified him for the State Tournament which takes place in November.
Yr 10 Jeremy M. flew the Glenaeon flag at Thredbo through the recent holidays, competing in his first ever ski race. Jeremy entered and raced in the alpine division 2 of an invitational schools snow sports racing event. In his first time racing through gates, Jeremy performed admirably, logging two clean runs, improving his time markedly on his second run and finishing 29th in a field of fifty plus competitors.
