Our kids came back buzzing. We may not have won but in my eyes the gold medal is the positive experience had by our students in meeting Grant Turner.

It was fantastic to have such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable Sporting Champion visit our School Games. Grant went above and beyond what we could have hoped from and teachers, young people and staff all thought very highly of him.
