Surf Life Saving

Well done to Annika Freiheit (Year 12) who competed at the NSW Surf Lifesaving Titles representing North Cronulla Surf Club. Annika won a Gold Medal as part of the U19 Rescue & Resuscitation Team, and a Silver Medal with the U23 team.

Further congratulations to Ruby Fry (Year 10) who represented Nth Bondi and won Gold in the U19 2 x 1km Beach Relay, Silver in the Open 2 x 1km Beach Relay and Bronze in the U17 2km Beach Run.

It is wonderful to see our SCEGGS students contributing so positively to this vital role in our community.

Touch

Good luck to Sophie Davis (Year 12) and Lily Cooney (Year 9) who are competing at the National Touch League being held in Coffs Harbour this weekend.

Equestrian

Congratulations to Chloe Copp (Year 12) who has been accepted to compete at the Easter Show as part of the Sydney Royal Horse Show. This comes after some excellent results at the NSW Indoor Titles in Tamworth.

Cricket

Well done to Elspeth Herbert (Year 8) and Marnie Flett (Year 8), who have both made it through to the final stage of selection trials for NSW U15 Girls Cricket Academy. These trials were held at Blacktown International Sports Park and the girls were lucky enough to bat together for a few overs. We look forward to hearing more as they continue their cricket journey.

Swimming

Good luck to Georgia Cate Baker Wood (Year 9) who is competing at the NSW Swimming Championships this weekend.

Snowsports 2023

For those SCEGGS families who are thinking about participating in the SCEGGS Snowsports Team, now is the time to lock in your accommodation before it all books out. SCEGGS competes in the Sydney Region of Interschools to be held in Thredbo from July 10 – 14. The emphasis at the regional level is on participation so students do not need to be super quick. Students should however be capable of skiing or boarding down a blue run unassisted.

The competition is open to all students from Kindergarten – Year 12. More information can be found in these links:

Please contact Alison Gowan if you would like to discuss further.
