There was success for our Year 7 Girls Cricket team at the NMR finals on Monday October 28. We played three games and had impressive wins in each of them.

A talented team, superbly led by the two co-captains Annabel and Lily.

Next up is the State quarterfinals on Friday November 22 in Bendigo!

Well done to our Year 7 Boys Basketball team who also competed at NMR finals recently.

The team played in three close games, with one exciting victory.

Darebin Division

The two Darebin Division sports in Term 4 are Futsal and Tenpin Bowling. We again had significant interest in all year level sports. Was great to see the enjoyment and team spirit that each of our teams displayed.

Special mention to Logan Nitschke and Jasper Piksons who achieved the two highest overall individual scores at the Darebin Tenpin Bowling event involving over 100 students!

Congratulations to the winners of their respective events so far this term:

> Year 9/10 Girls Futsal
