St Paul’s 8-year-old Emma Carmody was one of hundreds of primary students who battled it out for supremacy at the Interschool Athletics Competition at Saxton Oval last Wednesday.
Having three attempts each at the long jump to achieve their best jump, Emma came in with a huge jump of 3.15m which followed her jump of 3.08m.
Tāhunanui School’s Gavin Gill claimed the high jump category for 8-year-old boys, clearing 1.14 metres at his peak.
Elsewhere in the region, Motueka also played host to another set of primary schools for their interschool competition.
