NSWCIS Football Championships
Greta Kraszula (Year 11) and Eloise Hansen (Year 11) were both part of the IGSSA Open Football team competing in the NSWCIS Football Championships earlier this week. Both girls played some exceptional football across the two days, helping IGSSA to a second place finish in the tournament. There was further good news for Greta, who was selected in the NSWCIS Combined team that will take on the best footballers CHS and CCC have to offer at the NSW All Schools Football tournament later this term. On top of that, Greta was also awarded the prestigious ‘Player of the Tournament’ award for her consistent excellence across the two days. Big congrats to both Eloise and Greta!

North West Equestrian Expo – Coonabarabran
On Thursday, our 14 equestriennes (see table below) set off from Sydney to Coonabarabran to compete at the North West Equestrian Expo. It’s always a fantastic week of competition and it gives a great opportunity for families across NSW to congregate and enjoy the festivities of the week. A big thank you to the parent manager Jane Denny and ‘kitchen coordinator’ Kerri Barr, who will keep our students fed and ready to ride each day. We’ll bring you a full wrap of the results in the next newsletter.
