Thanks

With the year drawing to a close and the first half of the Summer season nearly complete, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the students for their conduct in 2022. The school spirit, sportsmanship and excellent attitude demonstrated by these young men has been outstanding, and they have been a credit to their parents, coaches and the College. With the ISA being the diverse association that it is, the reality of the competition is that we often find our lower graded teams in the same division as smaller schools’ higher graded teams. This can make life very difficult for some teams but again, I commend the boys for their enthusiasm and commitment despite the odds not always being in their favour. I am very much looking forward to the second half of the season in the new year.

Thank you also to parents/carers for their support over the last year – we are blessed to have many supportive parents and carers without whom sport would not be the same. Staff members and outside coaches also deserve considerable recognition for their leadership and expertise throughout the year.

Please note that Summer sports training will commence the first Wednesday back of Term 1 – 1 February 2023; with a full round of fixtures set to commence on  Saturday 4 February 2023. (RHBL Baseball and NDJCA Cricket fixtures will commence back the week prior – Saturday 28 January 2023). 

Congratulations

Well done to Vincent Pappalardo and Anthony del Popolo who competed in the School Sports Australia Diving Competition in Brisbane last week. It was a successful week with both Vincent and Anthony doing well in the competition. The boys’ results are listed below:

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe holiday.
