Lukas Succeeds in Canterbury Duathlon

Room 14 and the rest of Leeston School would like to congratulate Lukas Taiaroa. On Monday Lukas completed the Canterbury Duathlon. Lukas told the class that it was pouring down with rain. It was hard because the wind and rain was driving into his face. Lukas came an amazing 69th out of a 155 10 year old boys. We think that Lukas is a legend.
