2026 Bentley 7s Gala Day
Six teams proudly represented St Mary’s Catholic College at the 2026 Bentley 7s Gala Day last Friday. Our students competed across a range of sports, including Year 7 and 8 Mixed Netball, Year 7 and 8 Mixed Soccer, Year 9 and 10 Mixed Netball, Year 9 and 10 Mixed Soccer, Year 7 and 8 Boys' Rugby League, and Year 9 and 10 Boys' Rugby League.
Throughout the day, our teams demonstrated outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship as they competed against schools from across the region. Their commitment and determination were evident in every match.
A special congratulations to our Year 9 and 10 Mixed Netball team and Year 9 and 10 Mixed Soccer team, who won their tightly contested grand finals to be crowned champions in their respective competitions.
Congratulations to all students involved for their excellent efforts and for representing the College with pride, respect and enthusiasm.
Year 7 and 8 Boys' Rugby League - Friendly Matches
Our Year 7 and 8 Boys' Rugby League teams have been given the opportunity to participate in a series of friendly matches against schools from across our region. These games provide a fantastic opportunity for our younger students to develop their skills, build confidence and strengthen their teamwork in a supportive, less competitive environment.
On Tuesday afternoon, our boys took on Good Counsel Catholic College from Innisfail and came away with a convincing win.
Please find below for the remaining games. Our team would love to have spectators along to cheer them on, so we encourage families and members of the College community to come along and show your support.
- Wednesday 4 November: Bentley Park College
- Tuesday 10 November: St Augustine’s College
- Tuesday 17 November: MacKillop Catholic College
- Tuesday 24 November: Innisfail State High School
All games will be held on the St Mary’s College oval, kicking off at 4:00 pm.
A huge thank you to Mr Lee Slatcher for his hard work in organising these games and providing this valuable opportunity for our students.
