Little League Sports Report Round 5

In round 5 of the winter sports season, the students showcased exceptional performances across all year levels. In football, year 4 students demonstrated their dominance with some impressive displays on the field. Moreover, the Junior School fostered a sense of community being actively involved in the wider school community in various sporting events. Notably, the 6A football team played on Hordern Oval, while the year 5 and 6 A rugby teams participated in fixtures as part of the Junior and Senior school Friday Night Lights event held at Easts Rugby club. This event serves as a highlight in the winter sport calendar, promoting unity and support within the school community while embracing Cranbrook Sport. Our students have been working hard across all sports and learning valuable lessons through victory and defeat. I encourage all students to give consistent high effort to trainings and games as we enter the second half of the winter season.

Yours in sport,

Mr James Roughan
