Congratulations to our Basketball Red Boys and Girls, Softball Red Boys, Softball Blue Girls, and Hot Shot Mixed Red teams, who were crowned Premiers and have now all qualified for the Divisional Finals taking place on Thursday 15 October. Our Kanga Cricket Blue Boys A team will also compete in a District Final on Thursday, with the opportunity to progress to the Divisional Final later that day if successful. We wish all our Year 5/6 Sport teams the very best of luck in the next round of competition.

Chess – Simon I

Congratulations to Simon I from Year 9, who represented the College at the Secondary Open Grand Final held at Xavier College on Friday. The event brought together talented student competitors from across Victoria, providing an opportunity to compete against some of the state’s best in a high-level competition. Reaching this stage is a significant achievement and reflects the standard required to compete at the highest level of school competition. We congratulate Simon on reaching the Grand Final and representing the College at this prestigious event.

Netball Program

Our before school Year 5–6 Netball Program will commence on Friday 23 October in the Sports Hall. The program is open to students interested in improving or developing their netball skills and learning more about the game. Sessions will run every Friday from 7:45–8:45am, providing students with an opportunity to develop their skills in a supportive and practical environment. All equipment will be provided, so students simply need to bring their usual sports uniform and water bottle.Sessions will include core netball skills, game awareness and some match play. The program is a great opportunity for students to build their confidence, develop their skills and enjoy playing netball with their peers.
