Student Achievements

Congratulations to the Boys 17B and 17C Basketball teams who both won their ISA Grand Finals at the weekend. The boys displayed an amazing effort throughout their games and should be proud of what they have achieved.

Mock Trial Competition

The Yr 11 Mock Trial team had their first round and a convincing win in the NSW Law Society Mock Trial Competition this week, where they were up against Queenwood School for Girls. They were the defence in a criminal trial where the defendant (Louise Colin) was facing trial for breaking and entering a house belonging to someone else and stealing a number of designer items. Her friend (Callum Wardman-Browne) provided evidence to state that she would have never committed such a crime, and both witnesses were strong in their responses to the cross-examination questions. Our barristers (Sophia Maxwell and Jack Murray) provided solid opening and closing statements and showed quick-thinking skills in the cross-examination of the prosecution witnesses. They were supported well by their solicitor (Charlotte Harman) and the Clerk of the Court (Sophie McMillan).
