Specialist Feature News: Physical Education

Selamat Siang, 

It's been another busy sport term for our seniors with their participation in a number of different district sports. Only a few weeks ago we had a 5/6 team of hockey starts attend the eastern metropolitan regional Hockey 7's event. Students played with great enthusiasm and integrity against the other schools coming away finishing third with 2 wins, a draw and two losses. 

On Thursday last week, 40 of our 5/6 students headed off to the District Hooptime Basketball event to compete against other schools within our District. All five of our teams won games across the day and it was amazing to see the teamwork, leadership and enjoyment on show both on and off the court. Thanks to Alice P and Amy M for their assitance with teams across the day. 

We look forward to our 3-6's competing in the District Athletics coming up on Tuesday September 10th. 

Terima Kasih, 

The Specialist Team

Yana Gill, Marissa Mundy, Natalie Palmer, Hamish Burrill, Steph Muratovic and Beth Cardy
