Primary Sport

Rhythmic Gymnastics

Congratulations to Eva Lobato Williams (Year 3) and Catherine Skamvougeras, Olivia Hung and Eloise Switajewski  from Year 4 for participating in the Voski Cup Rhythmic Gymnastics Event held on Sunday 8 October.

This was the first big event for the gymnasts to compete in, and they did so with the support of their coaches.

Head Coach Rachel and the Rhythmic Gymnastics coaching team are pleased with the gymnasts’ confidence and perseverance in performing on the floor!

Saturday Sport

Congratulations to our Basketball teams who got underway in the IPSHA Competition over the weekend. With matches played at Wenona, SCEGGS and Moore Park, we had some great matches played with some fantastic teamwork and individual skills shown. Well done to our four IPSHA tennis teams who took to the court on Saturday; with such great numbers of Primary girls playing tennis this term, we look forward to hearing your results. Congratulations to our combined Year 4, 5, 6 cricket team, who won their first season match against an experienced Queenwood side.

Sport Reminders

As we enter Term 4 and the temperature increases, please be aware that hats are an expectation for students participating in certain activities. This is particularly the case for those playing tennis!

If your daughter cannot make an afterschool activity anytime throughout the term, please contact the relevant sport convenor or me at Tom Mitton. Our priority is to ensure your daughter is safe; ensuring we know that she will not be attending an afterschool activity is one step in making this possible. If your daughter cannot attend, this impacts our training, staffing and venue bookings. Your help in making this process as smooth as possible is appreciated!

Sporting opportunities

For any students looking to get into Waterpolo or play more, check out TigerBall presented by Balmain Waterpolo Club’s latest offering. This opportunity is open to all students who are 8 years or older. Check out this link for more information. 

Other Information

SCEGGS Sport will no longer upload Team Sheets and Draws to the Sport Course on Cognito.

The IPSHA App will still be used on mobile devices for venue closures.

For possible weekly sports session cancellations, Parents will be notified via Clipboard.

Please help us celebrate any other achievements outside of school!

Does your daughter compete in any sport outside of school (for example, at a representative level or a sport we do not currently offer)? If so, I would love to celebrate their achievements by recognising them in this newsletter!

Please email any information (and photos, if possible) to Tom Mitton. These will be included in newsletters throughout the term.
