Senior Football

Congratulations to our Senior Football team who won 3 out of 4 games at Knox Park on Tuesday in the beautiful sunshine.

 

Game 1 we lost to Rowville East; however, we hear it was a big improvement on last year's score. From then on, we had Scoresby, Upwey, and Rowville West. We began working together better and better as the day went on, and created some great scoring chances and goals with our Captain, Dhiren, scoring with his non-preferred foot from long range just clipping the bottom of the cross bar and into the goal, as well as many amazing saves by our goalie Mattias.

 

Thanks for your fantastic effort! It was a lot of fun coaching you all!!

House Cross Country

The 2024 Wantirna College House Cross Country Carnival was one of the best in recent years. Great weather, competitive racing, and the canteen were some of the highlights of the day. Thanks to everyone who took part in an event, and to all staff for their efforts in running another successful Carnival. 

 

Special shout out to the Knox Council for allowing us to use the Lewis Park Reserve facilities and the Fairpark Junior Football Club for providing the canteen on the day.
