Interschool Sport vs Colyton

We were super excited about our first ever interschool sports exchange with Colyton School - and it was an awesome day!  We faced them in rugby, football and netball, and we won two games and lost three.  There was some wonderful talent on display and there were some pretty fancy goals and tries scored, as well as some great defence.  Everyone competed hard and showed excellent sportsmanship. After the matches, we had match reports from the team captains, before enjoying a delicious afternoon tea.  Thank you to Mr Howie, Mr Lynch and Mrs Sinclair who came along to help with coaching and refereeing, to Ms White who helped set up the afternoon tea, and to all those parents who were able to come along and support us.  Bring on 2017!

  6. It was definitely a surprise in the morning when Miss Simpson asked Gussie and I if we wanted to play soccer because there wasn't enough people. It was very fun playing soccer but I am not the best, I missed the ball more then I kicked it. Thanks Colyton for coming to play us!
