SCHOOL EVENTS Mitchelson House took out top honours on Athletics Day.
ATHLETICS DAY We were delighted to actually be able to hold our annual Athletics Day in Term 1! The first full school event of the year, complete with food trucks, coffee and smoothie carts, it brought home to us how we have missed the energised atmosphere driven by Dio students and their House spirit! It was great to see many parent supporters in the stands – a special thank you to all those who helped with transport. A huge thank you too to all the staff who assisted on the day in so many ways.
