During the last week of Term 3, Year 7 student Freya Nally represented Tasmania in the Under 14s Footlocker Club Basketball Championships held in Casey, Victoria. 

25 teams competed from around Australia, the Tasmanian southern girls taking away the Fair Play award. 

On the weekend, Year 8 students Scarlett Henderson and Ariane Jones both competed in the Tasmanian State Bouldering Titles.  Both girls showed great resilience and supported each other through the all day competition.
