Primary Dio Gala Day - Soccer/Netball
Soccer-
The Gala day in Inverell was a fabulous second last day of term! From spectacular goals to determined defence, every player gave their best effort both on the field and on the sidelines. The students from St Philomena’s really showed up with pride and excellent sportsmanship- never missing a chance to cheer each other on. The Year 3 and 4 teams even had a hard battle against each other in one game! It was really fabulous to see the enthusiasm of everyone and we cannot wait to see our students bring the same energy to the next gala day!
Netball-
Three netball teams showcased fantastic team spirit at the recent netball gala day. Many new skills were learnt and everyone enjoyed the friendly competition. A huge congratulations to Phillies Red for their impressive run, making it all the way to the semi-finals!
