What’s been happening in Term 4 Primary Sport?
Term 4 sport has been short, sharp and shiny!
Year 3/4 and Year 5/6 basketball teams played at Wayville from Weeks 1-6 with all teams being quite competitive throughout the season. They had training sessions with their coaches most Mondays after school who were guided by a coach from Kelly Sports as well as SAC staff members. I hope to see Year 3-5 students continue with primary basketball in Term 1 next year and for the Year 6s, I wish them all the best with their basketball as the move into the secondary sports program.
The Come ‘n’ Try program included Multi Sports for the Receptions and Cricket for Year 1s. Year 5/6 students participated in Water Polo Clinics.
There are also a number of students from Reception through to Year 6 involved in AFLW Auskick and Superkick Clinics as well as 9-a-side games run by the SANFL at Waite Oval on Mondays after school that will continue on through until the end of the term.
SAPSASA AFL Girls State Carnival
In Week 2, Year 5 students Alysha and Jaya, represented the East Adelaide SAPSASA District in AFL. Across three days they played against nine other districts winning all but one game. This is an amazing accomplishment. After all of their hard work they ended up with the silver medal in Division 1. Congratulations girls!
SACPSSA Athletics
In Week 3, 21 Year 3-6 students travelled to Athletics SA to compete in the annual SACPSSA Athletics Carnival. The team was chosen from trials earlier in the year as well as from the SAC Athletics Carnival. We had many excellent results throughout the day with everyone putting in their very best effort with quite a few ribbons being won and PBs being broken. We finished in fourth place overall out of nine schools which was a great achievement.
SAPSASA Tennis Girls State Carnival
Congratulations to Sarah Patni, Edytka Taneja and Isabelle Andrade who have been selected to represent the East Adelaide District in Tennis. At the time of writing, they are yet to compete, and we wish them all the best with their competition.
