Paeroa Domain was filled with secondary school students from across Thames Valley on March 18, for the inter-school athletics competition. Competitors circled the track for the running events, while others took on the shot put, discus, javelin, high jump, long jump and triple jump field events. Reporter ALICE PARMINTER hit the starting blocks to catch the action.
