SENIOR GIRLS & BOYS CRICKET ROUND ROBIN || Our Senior Boys represented the college with great spirit and sportsmanship at today's Round Robin Cricket competition. They played strongly across the day and, while they didn’t come away with the overall win, their teamwork and effort were impressive. A special mention to Angus B for breaking two stumps — a powerful performance!
Our Senior Girls were equally impressive, finishing 2nd overall on the day. In true team style, they opted for serious team photos only — as they told us, “We’re serious about cricket.” What makes their achievement even more remarkable is that more than half the team had never played cricket before. An outstanding effort!

Authentic learning, real-world connections and a coastline right on our doorstep.
