18 September 2024
The buzz has settled from Paris 2024, but the mark our former public school students left on their sports will remain.
After 11 days of inspirational performances flooded the screens around the globe, WA’s 15 para-athletes returned home from the Paris Paralympic Games.
From Madison de Rozario bearing the Australian flag at the Opening Ceremony, to Rhiannon Clarke breaking record after record, our athletes demonstrated excellence in all facets.
Congratulations to all former WA public school students who represented Australia at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games:
