Athletes from Erdiston Special School took their place among the others competing in the Anton Norris Zone last week in the Chefette Frosteez National Primary School Athlete Championship (NAPSAC) at the Usain Bolt Complex.

Principal Donna Holder told The Nation’s Rohansonn Waithe it was important for them to be able to compete against their peers although they also have the option of Special Olympics.

Erdiston Special School earned one point among the girls and 37 in the boys’ section.
