ST Oliver’s Community College’s 3rd annual girls mini marathon took place on Friday, May 19th in the grounds of the school.

The event was a huge success and the afternoon was filled with pink balloons, pink outfits, music, sunshine and exercise.

This year a total of 301 female students and female teachers took part in the charity event running/walking 5km each around our schools perimeter.

A wonderful afternoon was had by all involved well done girls.
