School Sports - What's Happening

DIVISIONAL SOCCER CARNIVAL

Congratulations to the 25 students in Grade 6 that represented Holy Rosary at the Divisional Soccer Carnival on Thursday. Both the girls and boys team were in the Division 1 section against some much bigger schools and they competed very well throughout the day. The girls team finished with 2 wins and 1 draw for the day, the boys team had 1 win. Most importantly the students had heaps of fun and represented our school with great sportsmanship. Thank you to Mr Walker and Miss Spence for coaching the kids. 

FOOTBALL CLINIC

A big thank you to Mitch from AFL Central Victoria for coming to run some footy clinics with our students from Foundation to Grade 4. The students really enjoyed learning more about the game of AFL football and further practicing key skills like handballing, kicking and marking. Combine this with some fun competitive games/activities made for a fantastic couple of days. We thank Mitch and his team at AFL Central Vic and look forward to more clinics in the future. 

REGIONAL CROSS COUNTRY

Congratulations to Amy Vance and Xavier Postlethwaite who represented Holy Rosary PS at the Regional Cross Country. This event was held at St Arnaud on Tuesday the 27th May. It was a huge achievement making it to this stage and both students have been training hard and should be really proud of their effort. Amy finished 18th overall in the 11 yr girls event and Xavier placed 44th in the 10 yr boys event. Well done from everyone at Holy Rosary.
