Wynberg Schools Placed First at Athletics meet
and eight girls selected for the semi finals
On Tuesday, 12 February, Wynberg Boys' and Girls' High Schools took part in an Athletics
meeting held at Greenpoint Stadium. It was with much excitement and enthusiasm that
athletes from both Boys' High and Girls' hopped into the buses. No doubt, a great deal of
that excitement was also the result of nervousness about the competition. On this day, our
strength was pitted against schools such as Muizenberg, Hout Bay, Fish Hoek, Groenvlei and
Lavender Hill. Throughout the day, Wynberg took part in numerous track and field events,
doing very well in all of them. Testimony to the fine achievements of our girls is the
number of Wynberg athletes who have made it through to the semi-finals. They are

Not surprisingly, the girls and boys from both
schools bonded well together and provided each other with sterling support, encouragement
and motivation. Although the day was a hot and an extremely long one, the Wynberg High
schools were delighted when they were placed first on the day. Many thanks go to the
coaches and supporters and congratulations to all of the participants.
