2023

Interschool Sport is back for 2023!

Edgars Creek Secondary College has continued it's Interschool Sport program for 2023. 

 

"Recapping the start the College could have hoped for." - Term 1?

 

A large number of students have taken the opportunity to sign-up, tryout and be apart of multiple teams to begin the year. We have had a number of successful Interschool Sport Days across Term 1. 

 

Intermediate Boys & Girls Volleyball teams represented the College at Epping Leisure City on Wednesday 22nd February. Falling just short in the final. The students involved when looking back on this experience said it was a "competitive and a mind-opening experience that they are grateful for."

Year 7 Boys Cricket (the first ever ECSC cricket team) gave it their best shot at John Laffan Reserve in Donnybrook on Thursday 2nd March. The boys described it as "the best experince to start Secondary school."

'Regionals Bound! Recap.' 

Another huge congratulations go out to both the Year 7 Boys & Year 7 Girls Volleyball teams for a hugely successful day at Epping Leisure City on Thursday 2nd March. Both teams progress through to Regionals which will be held in Term 3 in October. The students recapped the day as "one to remember," and "the start to something better."
