Congratulations to PRC Captain Mia Phu for leading 9G to victory. Second place went to 9D and third place was 9A. We also acknowledged some amazing individual efforts and at least one student from each class won a prize. The photo above shows our individual prize winners for 2024. Thanks to all of year 9 for taking part in this challenge!
