Term 4 Sport

IGSSA Touch, IGSSA Water Polo and Hornsby Tennis all wrap up this weekend. We’ve got a number of teams who will either be contesting a grand final or who will be playing for a 1st place finish in their divisions this weekend so all the best to those teams in their pursuit of victory.

This also marks the end of our IGSSA Sport Program for the year so I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved. Parents who get our students to games and training on time, coaching staff who mentor and develop our students in a fun environment, umpires and officials who ensure our games are played in a safe and enjoyable manner, the Sport Department who work away behind the scenes to coordinate training and fixtures, and most importantly to the students who are out there week in week out training and competing with a desire to win, have fun and always with a smile on their face.

Best of luck to Erika White (Year 8), Scarlett Quinn (Year 8) and Holly Rose Maley (Year 8) who will be competing at the National Cheerleading Championships in Melbourne this weekend. We’ve got our fingers crossed for you all!
