Divisional Swimming

Thursday 15th of March saw our swimmers compete in the Divisional Swimming competition.  With 60 team members attending we had a very successful day in the pool. All  swimmers who received first place in any event will move through to the Regional Competition on 28th March.  Congratulations to all of our participants who gave their all during the competition. Thank you to staff, Sports Captains and our VET Sport and Rec students for helping out on the day.

Yr 9/10 Regional Cricket

In the Yr 9 /10 Regional Finals we had a great day – only losing to Montmorency by 1 run off the last ball of the innings. We beat Brunswick by 30 runs. Against Mt Ridley we made 150 off 12 overs winning by 70 runs.  Alex Johnston made a spectacular score of 94 in this match. It was fun to be out with a great tea who although disappointed did themselves and the school credit. You can’t win them all.

Senior Divisional Volleyball

Congratulations to our VCE Volleyball teams who competed in the Divisional Competition on March 6.  After some very close competitive matches, our boys team came away with a win against William Ruthven but were defeated by Reservoir and Thornbury. The boys matches were exciting to watch with a hard hitting and fast pace. They should be congratulated for their sportsmanship throughout the day.

Our girls cruised through the day winning all of the matches in their pool which qualified them to compete in the final against St Johns. Northcote came out strong and continued to do so throughout the whole match to become Division Winners. They now move through to Regionals which is to be played on April 26.

 A big thank you to our Students Chloe Pattas and Mila Dimkovska who helped us out with umpiring matches throughout the day.

Year 7 Baseball

On Tuesday 13th March fresh from a long weekend our Year 7 Baseball team shipped over to Mill Park to play Thornbury in a battle of wills. After a blistering start with two shut out innings and Ten runs our team pumped the brakes in order to encourage a sportsperson-like game. By the end we finished with a score of 19 to 7.

Special thanks to our student coach assistants Luka Craven and Albert Goodwin  and a big congratulations for the team.
