Central Zone Orienteering

Ducks paddling around and babies crying. This hardly seemed like a place for a sporting event. Yet at 10.00am on May 13 Western Springs transformed into a sporting arena. Fifteen students from Royal Oak Intermediate participated in the Central Zone Orienteering Competition. Many different schools tried their best to secure a spot at the Interzone Championship. Our Year 7 Girls, Zoe Bertenshaw, Natasha Purchase, Sarah Hofmann and Lucy Kelly, were one of the fortunate teams. Jarred Curtis won the Year 7 boys competition and also went on to compete at the Interzone Competition. At the Interzone Competition Jarred came third overall. Everyone tried their best and had fun.
