X-Adventure Winners
A big congratulations to all of the students from Cornerstone who recently competed in the X-Adventure held on Saturday 30th March. The x-adventure is not for the faint-hearted featuring an ocean swim, trail running over granite rocks and a grueling mountain bike ride through the Dunsborough hinterland.
The 'Hot Shot's took out first place for the fifth time in the Kid's Course, with Sebastian McGuinness and Ned Kalbfell also competing in this event.
'Cornerstone Cape Crusaders' attempted the short course for the first time and came in at second place, with Jaden Hodsdon winning the running leg for his age group. A special mention to Ned who signed up at the last minute and enthusiastically completed the whole Kid's course, with very little training. Top effort to all the boys.

Basketball Finalists
Last weekend, several of Cornerstone's teams made the Grand Finals in the Busselton Basketball Association series.
One of which were the "Cornerstone Gems". They make up an awesome team of both Dunsborough and Busselton campus girls. Also the Cornerstone U14 Boys - "Raiders", and Cornerstone U16 Boys - "Bulls" made the grand finals as well. We are waiting to hear of how they all went - and so hop over to the College's Facebook page to see results as they come to hand.
