The State School Western Australia Interschool Triathlon was held on Friday 5^th of November at Champion Lakes Regatta Centre. The event included a 200m swim, 6km cycle and 2km run in which we entered two Year Six teams into B Division and two Year Five teams into C Division. This was the first time the Aquinas Junior School has entered the competition which saw great success. Both Year 6 teams finished 1^st and 2^nd respectively in what was a fantastic performance by our boys on the day, with our Year Five teams showing great grit to finish 6^th and 20^th respectively. Some key highlights were an impressive swim leg from Eli Hickman to give his team the lead which was matched by an outstanding bike leg by Christopher Chan to see his team in the clear transitioning into the run leg.

Year 6 (B Division)

• 1^st Place – Finn Marsden, Christopher Chan and William Rusbatch
• 2^nd Place – Eli Hickman, Alexander Peca and Lewis McLernon

Year 5 (C Division)
