Term 3 Sport Wrap Up!

It has been a busy time for sport to wrap up Term 3, and we have a lot to celebrate! This Term we participated in Year 3 and 4 Hoop-time, Year 5 and 6 Hooptime, Year 5 and 6 District Sport, Senior District Basketball AND Knox Division Athletics! A HUGE congratulations to all students who participated in these events, and a HUGE THANK YOU to all the parents who gave up their time to either coach, score or support our students, these events would not run without your continued support.
