Two St Mary’s students took home the competition, with Harvey Brown winning the Years 3 and 4 category, and Audrey Dobeli in the Years 5 and 6 category.
Echuca Lions president John Simson said the winners would move onto the next level of competition, to be held in August.
“All students acquitted themselves very well and were a credit to their respective schools,” he said.
The club has run the competition over a number of years, and it has proved to be a popular fixture among primary schools in Echuca-Moama.
A special thanks was given to Echuca College for allowing the club to use the school to hold the competition.
