Exciting few weeks for Primary Sport!

Our Year 5/6 Knockout AFL team, coached by old scholar and PE assistant, Gracie, put in a fantastic performance. Although the team was relatively inexperienced, they showed incredible determination, teamwork, and sportsmanship throughout the match. We are very proud of their effort and the way they represented our school. Congratulations to goal scorers Maggie, Allie, Sian & Emily W. Unfortunately Highgate Primary came away with the victory on the day. We wish them the best of luck for Round 2.

The Year 5/6 Knockout Soccer Round 1 Carnival was postponed due to the forecast of inclement weather. We look forward to carnival being rescheduled for a later date and getting back on the pitch soon.

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Sean, Technical Director, from Adelaide Jaguars Women’s Soccer Club for his ongoing support of our soccer program. His contribution has been invaluable, and we are excited to continue building a strong partnership to grow soccer opportunities for our students.
