Heyington Highlights
This years Heyington event saw the tradition of offering
something new and challenging continued -with flair and tight organisation. 
Syd-Course Setter. Bruce Winner Course A.
The introduction of the updated Kooyong Park
map added to the range of options presented. 
Phil-SC student-Syd and Peter discussing the new map.
Course A used three maps with a high emphasis on
concentration and quick decisions, while Course E competitors had their
controls all set within the safety of the school grounds. A novelty for the
younger competitors.
 Katherine and Kris enjoyed the run.
The Power Walkers had the use of two maps using both sides
of the South Eastern freeway.
The walk to the start was a welcome change with many
claiming it was the first time they had done a warm up!
 Tina and Vic after the event.
All in all this event was a very successful addition to the
high standard we have come to expect from our visits to Scotch
College.. 
Camberwell Grammar out in force!
We owe the school our thanks for generously allowing the
Orienteering organisation to use their facilities.
Next Week: Camberwell
Grammar hosts Canterbury Trails..
