YEAR 7 Touch Rugby State 1st and 2nd

On Tuesday 4 April, our Year 7 EXCEL Sports student's participated in the first interschool carnival, with the Boys winning the grand final against Hallam and our girls came second narrowly losing to Mentone Grammar. 

Such a pleasing start for our latest team to join the school. 

YEAR 9 EXCEL Sport 2XU Triathlon 

On Sunday 26th March, the Year 9 EXCEL Sport class competed in the 2XU Fun Tri at St Kilda Beach. The students spent 6 weeks training for the event in class time under the expert guidance of our resident Ironman Mr. Clark. The race consisted of a 300m swim, 13km bike ride and a 3km run. It was an outstanding day with the school being represented with distinction in the community by our EXCEL Sport students. All the students completed the event with a great sense of satisfaction and pride. Congratulations to Gus Kennedy, Zac Earle and Aaron Jasiak for finishing 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively in our class for the boys, and Alana Tullberg, Remi Maguire and Hayley Tasker for finishing 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively in our class for the girls. A special thank you to Mr. Clark for giving up his time throughout the term to assist in the training and competing in the event, Mr. Leith for also competing with the students, and Mrs. Brand for giving up her Sunday to assist and support us in this event. 

Year 10 SAILING

On Thursday 16th February, the EXCEL Sport class went to Mornington Yacht Club to experience sailing. For most students this was the first time they had learnt this technical skill and with favorable conditions for beginner’s, most students saw success instantly. The girls sailed in the morning and grasped the skills quickly, enjoying the friendly conditions to maneuver the boats. The boys remained on the beach training for an upcoming Beach Volleyball tournament. After a BBQ lunch, the groups swapped over. Thank you to the Mornington Yacht club who provided great learning conditions for the students to succeed and Mr. Robinson for his sharing his vast experience in sailing with the students on the water.
