Afterschool Netball:

A big congratulations to the 30 players who took part in the Term 3 Afterschool Netball Competition. Buninyong fielded two Grade 3/4 teams and one Grade 5/6 team which was fabulous to see. Our teams have taken the court each Tuesday and have not only performed well but have made amazing progress with their netball. 

Last week saw the finale of the competition with the 3/4's taking part in a round robin and the 5/6’s playing off in the Grand Final (going down by only a few goals in the final quarter).  All players enjoyed the presentation, and we wish them all the very best in their future netball.

A special mention goes out to our fabulous coaches who put in a great deal of time and effort preparing for the games and at the matches.  Thank you to Jess, Mel, Casey and Debbie for all their contributions!

Division Athletics:

Congratulation to the 34 students who represented Buninyong Primary School at the Division Athletics last week at Llanberis.  We had our red, white and black tops spread out across the venue for the whole day which was great to see.  All students had pure focus on the day and had prepared themselves well.  Although many ribbons were won, we were most proud of each and every one of them who got out there and gave their event everything they had.  There certainly were some nerves but we tried to harness them to improve our performance even more.  Well done to everyone involved.

A special thanks to Linda, Lyndal, Shona and Jordon who offered up their time to support our team on the day!  Without our wonderful helpers, these days would not be possible.

Well done to those who have made it through to Regional Athletics on 11 October, 2024.  We look forward to hearing how you go next term.

P-2 Sports Day:

P.E. Shoes Reminder

A reminder that students need to bring clean, dry running shoes to P.E. each session.  This is to ensure the safety of the students as well as the condition of the gym.  Please bring them to school in your bags and carry them to P.E. where we will change into them.  Thank you.
