On Friday 6th December, 24 Glen Huon Primary students braved horrible conditions at Bellerive Beach for the Schools Triathlon Challenge. With wind, rain, hail and occasionally hot sun we really got a taste of all four seasons.

Our students did a wonderful job of representing our school! We had some terrific results, with many students undertaking the Triathlon for the first time and being supported by our more experienced students throughout the day.

It was great to see students pushing their comfort levels, working as a team, achieving personal bests. A special thank you to all parents who assisted with organising and supporting students, especially Deanne Murtagh who went above and beyond with her assistance and support, as well as Miss Stephanie van der Schans who braved the conditions with us!

Despite freezing water, blowing winds and transition stations scattered amongst the thousands of people, Glen Huon gave their very best last Friday.

Here’s some of the action captured on the day…
