Senior Sport
The Seniors have been very busy this term!
They have all settled in well and have had
a great start to the year. We can’t believe
that it is almost the end of Term 1!
The Seniors have spent the last few weeks
practising for their chosen sport for Senior
Sports. Last Friday, we had our first away
game, playing at St Francis De Sale Primary
School in Lynbrook. We had lots of fun and
we had some amazing results.
We are all looking forward to our next
game tomorrow, which is also an away
game against Cranbourne Carlisle Park.
Prep and Junior students had fun meeting Harold in the Life Education van.
They learnt about how the human body works, healthy eating and nutrition,
medicines and drugs, bullying, resilience and social skills.
