The Inter-House and Inter-Schools Athletics meetings for 2011 were a great success. Kudu won the Inter-House SP Meeting this year,
with some outstanding individual performances leading to their win. Leah Kriel took the 1200m record both in the Heats event, and at the
SP Meet in the U10 Girls section. Her brother Jared took no fewer than three records in a single morning.
Jared broke the 1200m, 100m and 150m records, some of which had stood for up to 18 years. Keziah Dewing smashed the U12 Girls shotput record, breaking the
record by nearly 1.3 metres
Laddsworth won the Northern Park Inter-Schools meeting off the final relay event of the day, making a powerful statement with the Open Boys "Dream Team" relay squad.
In addition, we broke two records in the 1200m events, with Lauren Knobel in the U11 Girls race, and Jared Kriel in the U13 Boys event taking line honours. In addition
to the above, Jared already held the Boys U8 50m, Boys U9 75m, Boys U9 100m and Boys U11 100m records. Jared also equalled the 150m record the same day. Our 1200m runners
were really dominant, thanks to the quality of their Cross-Country training from Jeff Speed and Linda Wolhuter, two current and past parents. Laddsworth 1200m runners won
all but one of the eight 1200m events, in one event taking 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Leah Kriel was the U10 Girls Victrix Ludorum,Thando Myeza took the U10 Boys Victor trophy,
and (predictably!) Jared Kriel took the Victor Ludorum trophy for the Open Boys. Mr. Farquharson, Master in charge of Athletics was delighted, and is still grinning from ear to ear!!
