Dear Parents and Guardians

A huge congratulations to the Rowing community for another successful Mitchell Cup Regatta held last Saturday. It was a highly competitive day, with lots of tight racing on Sydney Harbour. A huge thank you to Mr Carrol and the rowing staff for putting on the day, and the parent community for running the BBQ.

In an amazing achievement Sam Konstas (Class of 23) made his first-class cricket debut for NSW on Tuesday at the SCG. Sam was presented his cap by ex-Australian cricketer Shane Watson. This is truly well-deserved, and we look forward to watching Sam’s progression over the coming years.

I’d also like to congratulate Max Moylan (Class of 24) who was victorious in winning the 2.4km Coogee Island Swim for the second time this year. The race commenced at the north end of Coogee Beach, swimming around Wedding Cake Island in a clockwise direction and finishing towards the south end of the beach. After a rollercoaster week of weather, Coogee turned on the sunshine – with great race conditions and 20-degree water temperature which bought a strong crowd of thousands of spectators to cheer on the competitors. There were over 1,000 competitors ranging from 13 to 70 years old. Max was a champion not only his own age group but he was the overall winner as well.  He defeated his competition by almost a minute with his nearest rival being over 100m behind him. Max was supported by his brother Harry who recently passed his lifesaving to enable him to be part of the water safety team after competing in the 1km swim himself.
