Footy Colours Day!  

Thursday the 17th September saw Lakeside College a sea of colour with all football codes represented- from AFL, to rugby league and union, to the ever-popular, soccer.

Lunchtime saw the PTFA doing an amazing job with the sausage sizzle for our Lakeside students while a range of fun footy activities were scheduled for primary students.

Prep to Year 2 students were able to participate in the handball competition if they so wished. Congratulations to Oli in Prep and Samara in year 2 (closely followed by Eadie in prep) who scored the highest points for handballs at the target.

Year 3 & 4 students were able to participate in the ‘Nearest the Wheelie Tub’ Most accurate kick competition. Congratulations to Ryan (Year 4) who was the narrow winner over Mitchell (year 3) in the final playoff, after a draw in the main round, where both boys hit the wheelie tub from their kick and ball landing in the same spot!!

Year 5 & 6 students had the opportunity to be part of the longest kick competition out on Toomuc. With a small field of entrants (I feel many were still distracted by the delicious BBQ) congratulations to Josh (Year 5) who took out the longest kick title.

Thanks to our primary leaders and Miss Gross for helping bring the fun to the activities.

Another fun activity for all students from Prep to Year 6 was the hunt for the golden football. A laminated card of a yellow ‘Sherrin’ football was hidden by Mrs Langdon somewhere around the primary area of the school. Congratulations to the lucky finder, Sienna of Year 1, who discovered the golden footy at the end of recess!

Kind Regards,
