This year saw the highest level of learner involvement to date, with colour teams competing with pride and enthusiasm across both track and field events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite challenging windy conditions, several school records were broken, highlighting moments of individual excellence and perseverance on the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These performances reflected the commitment and focus of our athletes under testing circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations are extended to the Orange team for securing back-to-back victories, as well as to the Red and Yellow teams for their competitive spirit and positive energy throughout the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The school also thanked event sponsors, Chery Kelston Motors Jeffreys Bay, Beesland Butchery, and Fountains Mall, for their valued support of school sport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Appreciation is also extended to the parents who assisted at food stations and those who provided gazebos, contributing greatly to the smooth running of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on this momentum, 77 learners represented GLA at the Paul Sauer Kouga Athletics Meeting on 31 January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Athletes competed with determination and commitment, earning an impressive medal tally of eight gold, 11 silver, and 10 bronze medals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Athletics at GLA continues to focus on participation, development, and learning, laying a solid foundation for future progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
