Not only did our individual athletes excel, but Pymble performed exceptionally well as a team with our Seniors winning the Senior division, 2nd in the Intermediate division and 5th for our B team in the Intermediate division. Congratulations to our athletes on their superb performances. Pymble are now eligible to represent Australia at the World Schools Athletics Championships in Turkey in June. We will select six athletes to travel to Trabzon in Turkey to represent our school and Australia from 19 to 25 June, 2023.
