This year St Thomas More's had 2 students competing at the Interschools in Perisher - Lyndon Cook and Ruby Kenny both from year 3.
Both students competed in Division 5 (consisting of Year 3&4 students) - Alpine GS and Skier X with excellent results.
The weather and snow conditions were difficult, however both Lyndon and Ruby didn’t let this bother them and continued to compete with smiles on their faces and represented their school with pride.
The results are as follows:
ALPINE GS
- Ruby placed 49 overall with 63 competitors in her division and a combined time of 94.64
- Lyndon placed 50 overall with 59 competitors in his division and a combined time of 95.28
