Rowing
The North West Schools regatta was held at Lake Barrington recently. Seven students competed including Lucy Balfour, Josi Braid, Hayley Davis, Molly Marshall, Ursula Nation, Jazlin Paterson and Mia Reardon. All girls competed in singles and doubles races in several age groups and Mount Carmel also had U14 and U15 coxed quad crews. The team overall did very well with most girls qualifying for at least one race in the upcoming schools championships. Thanks to Chris Reardon and Bruce Ims for organising the team and coaching the girls.
Little Athletics State Representatives
Congratulations to the Year 7 students Jessica Bray and Avalon Forbes, who have been selected to represent Tasmania at the Australian Little Athletics Championships in the U13 division, which will be held in Hobart on 27-28 April. Selection in the team followed their outstanding results at the State Individual Championships.
Year 6 students Olivia Jones, Bailey Van Den Broek and Bella Quin all performed strongly with Bailey and Olivia winning at least 10 gold medals between them. Year 3 student Jemima Geappen also took away some medals. Congratulations to all the Mount Carmel students who qualified and participated at the championships.

The team included Year 5 students Lucia Devine and Elizabeth Ims and Year 6 students Imogen Mulder, Asha Nicol, Zoe Rhodes, Matilda Ross, Avara Donovan, Kayla Round, Matilda Kaye and Elsie Batchelor.
Three games of blast cricket were played against teams from St Cuthbert’s and Molesworth. All players had the opportunity to bat, bowl, and field and to cheer on their team mates.
