DISTRICT ATHLETICS - Almost 30% of all students who attended from St Joey's have progressed to the DIVISION ATHS CHAMPIONSHIPS!
What an outstanding level of sporting talent and good sportsmanship was demonstrated on Friday at Mornington Athletics Centre from our St Joseph's Athletics Team in both track and field events. Although we are by far the sallest school of the district we took out 1st or 2nd in an incredible number of events. To say that I am proud of every one of them is an understatement. Thank you to Miss Lumsden, Mr K, Mrs Souter and to Leah Willcock for their help on the day and also to Mitch Nibbs and Sophie Morton for their help with the large school shelter.
Check out our District Results: WOW!
