2024 House Athletics Carnival

Congratulations to Albini for winning the 2024 House Athletics Carnival. A fast-finishing Gerard couldn’t catch them but finished 2nd ahead of Tempier.

Well done to all the students who participated and a huge thank you to the staff of Mazenod for helping with the running of the event. Special thanks to the HPE Team for their hard work and contributions leading up to and on the day of the carnival.

Champion Boy and Runner-Up for each Year group are listed below. Congratulations to the outstanding athletes! There were a few tied Runners-Up Champion Boys highlighting the depth of high performance across multiple events. These students will be presented with their trophies at the Sports Awards Night in Term 4.

The preliminary squad for the ACC Athletics Carnival Team based on the House Carnival results will be posted next week. Team training will commence in Term 3. Students wishing to gain a spot in the team or for a particular event will need to attend training sessions and inform staff of their intentions. They will then have the opportunity to compete for selection during these training sessions and at the pre-carnival practice meets.

Intermediate Soccer

Game 3 2024

After a couple of weeks off, the Intermediate Soccer Team played their third game of the Champion Schools Football Cup season, hosting Kelmscott SHS. Both teams were undefeated in the competition so far and were looking to maintain their unbeaten runs. After a back-and-forth start to the game with both teams having several opportunities, Mazenod eventually took control, striking two quick goals through Marcus M and Daniel B. We went to half-time with a 2-nil advantage. Kelmscott fought back in the second half scoring their first goal to put Mazenod under serious pressure, they continued to pepper the Mazenod goal but were unable to find the net.

Mazenod eventually sealed the game scoring a third goal through Hamish S in the last minute of the game. 

Thanks to Mr Wani and Mr Mason for their assistance in coaching the team and the parents who came and supported them. The team's next game is an away fixture against Kalamunda SHS in Week 8.

Year 8/9 Eagles Cup

Yesterday the Year 8/9 Eagles Cup team played Carine SHS at the College. Both teams were keen to continue their winning ways. The game was a back-and-forth first half with Mazenod taking a quick 2-goal lead before Carine settled and took control of the game. After a great motivational halftime speech by Mr Dawson, Mazenod came out firing in the second half.

Mazenod dominated the clearances and piled on some great forward pressure kicking 8 goals and running out dominant winners. It was a great performance by the whole team, in particular Zach T, who kicked 5 goals and a cheeky side goal that will be remembered for years to come. Well done to Marcello P and Joshua S for their dominant ruck and clearance work. A big thanks to Mr Dawson and Mr Mallon who coached and ran the team.
