Greatness Beyond the Gates

Earlier this year, Roy won a bronze medal at the Oceania Taekwondo Championships. More recently, he also won a bronze medal at the PPP Taekwondo Championships. Roy has been training hard while balancing his school commitments, and we are very proud of his dedication and achievements. 

Celebrating an Outstanding Achievement

We are incredibly proud to celebrate the remarkable achievement of our very own PE and STEM teacher, Sam Dell'Aquila.

Last week, Sam competed in the TYR Torian Pro, one of Australia's premier fitness competitions, as an adaptive athlete. Competing against some of the nation's best athletes, Sam demonstrated exceptional determination, resilience, and athletic skill throughout the event.

We are thrilled to share that Sam finished in second place, earning a well-deserved silver medal. This outstanding result is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and perseverance that Sam brings not only to her sport but also to her teaching every day.

Sam is an inspiring role model for our students, showing that setting ambitious goals, embracing challenges, and working consistently towards success can lead to extraordinary achievements.

On behalf of the entire Valkstone Primary School community, we congratulate Sam on this incredible accomplishment and look forward to cheering her on in her future competitions.
