Interschool Chess Tournament
On 21 July, 10 students represented ASPS in the Bialik interschool chess Tournament. The team were Aiden T, Elijah O, Henry W, Lucy L, Luke L, Noah L, Owen B, Tom W, Wenzhi C and Zaiden R.
In a special highlight for the day the team got to meet chess Grand Master Darryl Johansen.
In another great outcome ASPS placed 4th, Wenzhi received an award for being 3rd individual player overall and both Wenzhi and Owen received medals for being the top 2 in a placing team.
This result means that ASPS now has a third team qualifying for the State Semi-Finals.
Well done everyone and good luck for the State Semis!
Snow Sports Team
Join the 2026 Auburn South Snow Sports Team!
A small group of ASPS students will be competing in the Victorian Interschool Snowsports Championships at Mt Buller from 17 to 19 August, and all interested students are welcome to join the team.
The team is about having fun and creating team spirit, regardless of the child’s skiing ability. So if they can ski or snowboard down a green run by themselves, they can compete!
Please note that all costs of participating in the event are to be covered by the family. This includes ski gear, skis or snowboard, lift tickets, entry pass to the mountain, transport and accommodation. Note that accommodation on the mountain is limited, so it is best to book as early as possible.
At least one parent or guardian must attend the event at all times with their child, as there will not be any teachers or school staff attending. Note that the school views the Interschools Snowsports Events as an off-site activity NOT endorsed by the school. This means that students competing in the snow sports competition are not covered by DET insurance policies including personal accident, ambulance cover, motor vehicle or private property.
If you are interested to learn more, please reach out to ASPS parent Stuart Teasdale (parent of Thomas Teasdale in 2B) via stuart.t@quantumbusiness.com.au
