What another thrilling journey it’s been! The NX Warrior 2025 competition saw 240 students sign up, with 100 then selected to take on 48 fierce challenges over 10 weeks. From 13-minute plank holds and modified beep tests carrying 15kg of gravel, to blindfold balance trials, memory games, push-ups, and even eating locusts – this event tested every ounce of courage, strength, and mental grit our students had.
The grand finals at Bounce North Shore were a high-energy showdown. Our top 10 finalists – Year 8’s Reuben (41), David (12), Viggo (24), Connor (24), Artyom (41), and Jasmine (24), and Year 7’s Nicole (57), Sarah (55), Amy (55), and Ellie (33) – raced across the ninja warrior course, trampolines, and speed wall to claim ultimate glory. A huge thank you to Melody and the amazing Bounce team for their warm hospitality and world-class facility.
Boys Champion: Rueben Van Tonder – 36.00 seconds
Girls Champion: Nicole Zhang – 1 minute 6 seconds
