Memory: Marcelle de Almeida & Ashley Knowles

This post was written by Marcelle de Almeida & Ashley Knowles - friend of Kayleighs at Calwell High.
______________________________________________

Kayleigh was the same age as both of us even though were a year above her in school years, even with the school year in between us we got to know Kayleigh very well. . .

Kayleigh was extremely sporty ! we competed against Kayleigh in cross country and athletics , she was our biggest threat as she was so darn good she would always whoop our butts ! she was so fast she'd win by a mile. She was amazing at cross country.

One of the many things that we love about Kayleigh is the fact that even though she beat us in our events she would always come over with a huge smile on her face, hug us and tell us we did amazing. She was a true athlete and an amazing competitor.

I remember when Kayleigh was in year seven, at the athletics carnival me ( Marcelle ) and Dara Haigh ran the 1500 m with Kayleigh as we worked out we would come 1st second and third and all make it through to zone together, sadly there was a mix up and none of us went , but it was an amazing race. .. . Kayleigh talked with me and told me things i never knew.

She was such an amazing and talented girl, we will both miss competing against her.
