Interschool Sport Lightning Premiership Day
Last Friday our CEPS teams showcased sportspersonship, skill and teamwork across Hot Shots, Cricket, Tee ball and Volleyball. The sun was shining, and it was a glorious day to be competing and seeing our friends from all of the schools in our district. The students had worked hard over the term to improve their skills and learn as much as they can about the different games.
At Lightning Premiership, teams are divided into Pool A or Pool B. In Pool A, the winning team overall advances to the Division play offs which are held later in the year. In Pool B, it is a chance to consolidate skills and have fun in a competitive way.
Results for the day:
