ACC Swimming 

By the time this newsletter arrives we will have competed the 2020 ACC Swimming Carnival. Our numbers have increased greatly thanks to the enthusiasm of our coaches Mike Pearson and Kevin Nguyen. We wish our captains all the best in their last swims for Mazenod in Ned Charlton and Lance de Vera. We will have a more detailed report next week. Our squad for the night is:

WELCOME – Sports Manager

Mazenod would like to welcome Ms Fleur Ellis to the College and the Sports Department. Fleur is the new Sports Manager for the College and will handle all things sport! Fleur comes to us with years of experience having worked at Balwyn High School and Ivanhoe Grammar in the same role for many years. Fleur will work closely with staff and students in continuing to provide the best sporting opportunities for all, as well liaise with our Old Boy networks and the other College departments. We all welcome Fleur to Mazenod.

ACC ATHLETICS TRAINING

After another outstanding carnival and many great individual efforts students have been invited to train for the upcoming ACC Athletics Carnival. Students received a letter in the roll and are expected to train. Students who did not receive a letter are also welcome to train as the letters were based off the house Aths and some students may have missed events etc. Training is Monday night after school at Ross Reserve starting at 2:45pm. A bus will leave Mazenod at 2:30 and return at 3:40pm. Students are permitted to leave from the track to Noble Park Station.
