Junior Sport Update
It seems like a lifetime ago, however, after our House Athletics Carnival at the end of Term 2, we had to move into remote learning and official records could not be checked until our return to school. Finally, we can acknowledge the boys in the Junior School for their outstanding individual performances at the House Athletics Carnival. I would like to acknowledge the following boys for their outstanding performances on the day:
Athletics Carnival New Records
Xavier Milewski | 12’s - 100m Sprint | New Record 13.50 sec | Old Record 13.55 sec |
Nicholas Vastas | 11’s Year 6 - 800m | New Record 2.35:10 | Old Record 2.43.35 |

Congratulations to all our record setters and age champions.
While many of our team-based sports were cancelled, a few lucky ones, in particular our individual sporting codes, have been able to keep going; Diving is one such sport. I would like to acknowledge Vincent Pappalardo of Year 6 for his outstanding performances in Diving this year. Vincent was recently awarded:
- 3rd Place in the Pathways points score
- 1st Place in 11/U point score
- 11/U Age Diver of the Year.
This goes along with his early NSWPSSA State Team representation. Congratulations on an outstanding year Vincent, and who knows, we may see you in the green and gold in the not-too-distant future.
It is always so pleasing to see the depth and variety of talent we have in the Junior School. I encourage all our boys to keep working hard for the remainder of this year, in readiness for the next. I look forward to seeing and hearing of all their successes in 2022.
