BASKETBALL BRILLIANCE!

We are so impressed with the students of Miners Rest Primary School this term!  We launched into an intense three week Basketball program where students showed off their passing, dribbling and shooting skills.  It was just AMAZEBALLS to see everyone become so enthusiastic and involved in every lesson, even those who had not done a lot of Basketball skill work in the past.  The overall participation and positive attitudes we have witnessed in our gym are so wonderful to be a part of.  Thank you to all students for their hard work!  There is nothing better, for a teacher, than seeing students excel and enjoy themselves at the same time!

Dakodah has been successfully selected to compete at the 2022 Country Basketball Jamboree which is to be held for the first time since 2019, in Echuca-Moama.

The U/12 Jamboree try-outs had 910 athletes participate with only 120 boys and 120 girls selected from the entire state of Victoria.  

This is an incredible opportunity for any player to gain experience developing skills in a High-Performance environment.  

Invitations were awarded to top-age athletes from the U/12 Country Skills Days, with the four day invitational camp being held in the September school holidays.  

On behalf of the Miners Rest Primary School Community, we would like to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Dakodah and GOOD LUCK!  We are very proud of your efforts!
