SPORTS LEADERS

YEAR 3&4 BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

Over the past month or so our Marian and Xavier Sports Leaders have been working together during their Leadership Hour time to plan a fun and inclusive basketball tournament for any interested Year 3/4 and Year 5/6 students. This week their tournaments finally kicked off, beginning with the Year 3/4’s on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Thomas Sherry basketball court was a scene of competitive half-court basketball game action! Well done to Finlay D, Olivia B, Hugh G, Sofia L , Scarlett H, Charlie L and Josh K; our Marian and Xavier Leaders. It was great to witness them all putting their leadership skills into practice; giving out clear instructions, answering questions, clarifying rules, refereeing and managing all the ‘intensities’ of a sporting tournament! Well done to Team 3 who were the winners of this week’s Year 3&4 tournament! We look forward to next week’s games with our Year 5 & 6’s.
