Sport and Adventure Assembl

In Week 3 we had the annual Sport and Aventure Assembly. This was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the achievements, participation and enthusiasm of our students throughout the year. From the sporting field to the great outdoors, it was wonderful to reflect on the many opportunities our students have embraced, the challenges they have overcome and the skills they have developed along the way. 

A huge shoutout to all the staff who make this possible. Whether you’re coaching teams, organising events, driving buses or supervising activities, your efforts make a massive difference. Sport simply wouldn’t happen without you and we are incredibly grateful for everything you do.

Most importantly, congratulations to our students for the enthusiasm, teamwork and sportsmanship you have shown throughout the year. It’s been a great year to be part of sport at St Philip’s and we look forward to building on that success next year!

Massive shoutout to our Sport Captains, Atticus and Tiki, and the Adventure Captains, Adele and Isaac for their hard work in organising this assembly.
