Intermediate and Senior Round Robin Days

We're thrilled to announce our upcoming Intermediate and Senior Round Robin Days! From Basketball to Volleyball, Cricket to Baseball, Softball, and Futsal, students from years 9 to 12 are gearing up for an exciting term of sports.

 

Our students have eagerly signed up for their Term 1 sport, showcasing their enthusiasm for a wide range of athletic endeavours. From the fast-paced dribbles of Basketball to the strategic spikes of Volleyball, the precise pitches of Cricket to the adrenaline-fueled sprints of Baseball and Softball, and the skilful manoeuvres of Futsal, there's something for every sports enthusiast to look forward to.

Swimming Carnival

Our annual Swimming Carnival is just around the corner! In just two weeks, on Monday 18th March at Noble Park Aquatic Centre, our school will come alive with splashes of excitement and friendly competition as students dive into the pool to showcase their swimming skills.

The Swimming Carnival is not just about winning; it's about participation, teamwork, and sportsmanship. It's a day where every student has the opportunity to contribute to their house team, cheer on their peers, and create lasting memories.

We encourage all students to get involved, whether they're seasoned swimmers or just starting to dip their toes in the water. Parents and guardians, your support and encouragement mean the world to our young athletes, so we invite you to encourage your children to attend the event.

Year 7 and 8 Sport

Year 7 and 8 students have been tirelessly preparing for the start to their weekly sport competition that begins on the 1st of March for the Year 7s, and the xxx of Feb for the Year 8s, against McKinnon Secondary School. Students have been given the choice of sports from Volleyball, Tennis, Cricket and Softball/Baseball.   

 

Tennis Champions - Westall versus McKinnon

On 16th February,  Westall Secondary College did a great job on the tennis courts at Caufield Recreation Club, against McKinnon Secondary. All the girls played well and they displayed a great spirit.  This was the first time any of the girls played competition.  Our team players were great at training and they were looking forward to representing the school. 

 

 They tried the 'Drop and Hit' to start the game and some tried their overhead serve. All the players are looking forward to doing it again next week.   The best players were Danika Muhanthan, Xin Fei Wan and Xin Yu Wan.
