Year 10

School Athletics Carnival

The Secondary School Athletics Carnival took place on Thursday at Sydney Olympic Park, involving Yr 10 students. The level of participation was remarkable, and the enthusiasm shown by the students representing their houses was exceptional. It was delightful to witness the excitement among the students as they took part in various events throughout the day, and their camaraderie towards their peers was heart-warming.

As the saying goes, “The five S’s of sports training are: stamina, speed, strength, skill, and spirit; but the greatest of these is spirit.”

Remember to always give your best effort, even when faced with unfavourable odds.

A very special congratulations to the following students:

• 16 Girls Age Champion – Samantha Wightwick
• 16 Girls Runner Up Age Champion – Jemima Hugman
• 16 Boys Runner Up Age Champion – Cameron Simpson.

Additionally, Samantha Wightwick deserves commendation for her impressive accomplishment as the Intermediate Divisional Champion.

Overall House winners

1. Cowper – 1639 points
2. McDouall – 1498 points
3. Dumolo – 1490 points 
4. Roseby – 1408 points

Yr 12 Winter Woollies Appeal

As the temperature continues to drop, we are reminded of those, who may not have the resources to stay cozy during the winter season. But fear not, because together, we can make a difference and bring warmth to those in need. As part of the Yr 12 ‘Give back’ initiative, the Winter Woollies’ Appeal, aims to collect and distribute warm clothing and blankets to individuals and families who may be facing the harsh realities of Winter. Please raid your closets and share the warmth! Gather gently used or new coats, sweaters, scarves, gloves, and hats that you no longer need. Every piece you donate will help someone stay snug during the cold months ahead. Please bring all items down to the Student Services Centre foyer and place in the yellow bin, before the end of Week 9. Your support and generosity is greatly appreciated.
