Overall, the students performed well with the Top 8 runners from each age group being selected to compete at the Diocesan Cross Country on Thursday, 9 May at Glenbawn Dam.

Cochrane Cup
The Under 14’s Boys Rugby League team had a very successful day at the first round of the Cochrane Cup in Aberglasslyn. The boys started the day strong with a good win against St Pius 22-0. They continued their strong performance in their next round game with a big win again St Bede’s 32-0. These great results earnt them a spot in the semifinals against the consistently strong All Saints. The boys came out very strong, scoring the first two tries giving them a good lead into half time. All Saints fought back with one try early in the second half. The boys didn’t drop their heads however, and bounced back with a try to secure their win 14-6. The boys will be heading to Cessnock early next term for the Cochrane Cup Grand Final. We wish the boys good luck for this big game.
A special thanks to Andrew Brown and Adam Thrift for coaching the boys and donating their time and expertise.
