NILLUMBIK DIVISION GIRLS VOLLEYBALL FINALS
Congratulations to the Greenhills Girls Volleyball team, who finished equal third at last Thursday’s Nillumbik Division Finals held at Diamond Valley Sports & Fitness Centre.
This was the second level of competition after successfully progressing through the district interschool sport program, and the girls can be proud of what they achieved.
They showcased their skill, supported one another, and showed great resilience on the court, all while bringing an infectious energy and enthusiasm to the competition. They represented Greenhills with pride and consistently displayed our G.R.E.A.T values both on and off the court.
Well done, girls! We are incredibly proud of your achievement and the way you represented our school.
