The children continued to excel in the Inter Schools meetings, representing Clifton with pride.

At the track and field meetings hosted by St Charles and Northern Park, our athletes performed well. Standout performances included Busisizwe Khuluse, who made history by breaking the inter schools long jump record, and several other athletes who competed at a high level, showcasing their talent and dedication. These children exemplified the hard work and commitment that is the hallmark of a Clifton child.

We are immensely proud of the effort and determination our children displayed. Their performances not only brought honour to our school, but also highlighted the depth of talent within our school. Congratulations to all our athletes for their incredible efforts, and we look forward to seeing more success in the seasons to come!
