🏅 Amy Winters
Sprinter Amy Winters came through Kempsey schooling and Macleay District Little Athletics before becoming a leading Paralympic athlete. At Sydney in 2000, she won both the T46 100 and 200 metres. Her 200 metres victories extended across three consecutive Paralympic Games, from Atlanta to Athens. The school and junior club records establish the local foundations, while Paralympics Australia documents the international achievements. Her career adds a substantial athletics connection to the Macleay Valley, including the ordinary development through school sport that preceded racing on a world stage.
