SSV Holt Soccer Lightning Premiership Caulfield Park  2023

Hi Everyone,

On Friday 28th of April, St Agnes competed in the SSV Holt Soccer Lightning Premiership against ten other schools in the Holt District at Caulfield Park. The Boys/Girls team was comprised of 31 St Agnes students from Years 4,  5 and 6. Both teams of St Agnes students competed in a round robin competition of shortened games.

The weather was good for soccer, 20 degrees and the showers held off all day, this made it very pleasant for players and spectators alike. The results were great this year.  St Agnes girls competed well all day, with Niamh Bruggeman scoring a fantastic goal in the last game against Our Lady of Lourdes Prahran, to win 1-0.  

St Agnes boys were up against some very experienced teams this year, but they didn't let that worry them, they played with a determination that all sports teams wished they had.  The boys took it one game at a time, one win after another only to miss out on being in the final with one goal difference. The smiles on all the students' faces confirmed that it was a very enjoyable day overall for everyone. 

I would like to say a big thank you to the teachers/staff and parents who helped out and came to support the students on the day. Most of all I thank the two teams for doing an amazing job representing St Agnes. Parents, teachers and myself are all very proud of you.

SSV Holt Cross Country Bald Hill Clayton,  2023

Hi Everyone,

On Friday 5th of May, St Agnes competed in the SSV Holt Cross Country against 12 other schools in the Holt District at Bald Hill, Clayton. The St Agnes Boys/Girls teams comprised 43 students from Years 3 and 6.  

Weather forecasting was foreboding, but the Cross Country Gods were smiling upon us as the weather was good for Cross Country, an overcast 18 degrees, this made it very pleasant for runners and spectators alike.  St Agnes did well considering we are one of the smaller schools. We came 5th overall, and 6th on percentage. Our school spirit shone through, with everyone doing their best and enjoying the day.  Congratulations to these students who will progress to the next level for Beachside on Tuesday 30th May.
