Several Northland secondary school athletes performed well at the New Zealand secondary school athletics championships in Dunedin this month.

Whangārei Girls High School had a mix of track and field stars. Jenna Johnson was second in the junior high jump. Mateja Matijevich-Wiki won the junior hammer and was sixth in shot put and discus. Aimee-Leigh Scott placed second in the senior hammer, sixth in shot put and ninth in discus. Holly Rule placed fourth in the junior 400m and Gemma Brock was sixth in the junior pole vault.

Pompallier Catholic College's promising para-athlete Daniel Meyer was first in the shot put and second in the discus.
