Lanni jumped amazingly well claiming 2nd place at State Athletics.  

All Athletes were exceptional across both days  

EMR Year 8 girls volleyball.  

The amazing year 8 volleyball girls competed at EMR volleyball Monday 27th October. These girls are weapons and if they stay together over the next few years combining with some Inter girls they could be unstoppable.  

Beating Monbulk a Volleyball school in their own right the girls were pumped. Next up were another two volleyball schools Upwey and Glen Waverley. Though not winning on the score board the competitiveness these girls had to match it with both schools was amazing. They should be very proud of themselves.
