Yr. 5 & 6 Sailing Day
On Friday 7th March, 40 of our Yr. 5 & 6 students went Sailing @ Albert Park Lake. For many of our students this was the first time they had been sailing. They all learnt how to steer, rig the sail and work well as a team whilst out sailing on Albert Park Lake. I am sure this is something they will remember for many years to come and hopefully it may spark a new interest for some of our students. Many thanks to Ms Dinakis, Ms Vaughan, Joe Stramandinoli, Yeonja Kwon & Julie Craig for all their assistance throughout the day.
Templestowe District Tennis
On Friday 7th March, the following students played in the Templestowe District Tennis Round Robin @ Serpell Tennis Club. (Romayne C, Elena L, Aybram M & Jesse K) The students all played extremely well and were a credit to Milgate PS. Well done to Romayne & Aybram, who both won their respective competitions. They will now play in the Manningham Division Tennis Round Robin in Term 2. We wish them all the best and look forward to hearing how they go.
