SCEGGS Mid-term Break<\/strong><\/h4>\n

With our impending SCEGGS mid-term break coming up on August 15, it is timely to remind everyone that most sporting teams still have fixtures on the Saturday. All students are required to play their scheduled matches. Parents are required to email Ms Allum if they require leave of absence for any Saturday sporting fixtures.<\/p>\n

NSW All Schools Cross Country<\/strong><\/h4>\n

An update to our article from last week. Nancy Newton has now been added to the team to compete at the Australian Cross Country Championships in Adelaide in August. This comes after excellent results in the club pathway.\u00a0 Congratulations to Nancy as she joins Ruby Fry and Lily Cooney representing NSW.<\/p>\n

Equestrian<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The NSW Interschools Equestrian Championships were held in the July holidays. Unfortunately, the weather was not kind with extensive rain playing havoc. Several SCEGGS riders were able to compete in the Dressage on Day 1 (Hannah Doolan and Scarlett Webber). \u00a0However, with great disappointment the entire competition had to be abandoned on the second day resulting in several of our SCEGGS riders being unable to compete at all.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Hannah Doolan who has been selected to represent the NSW Show jumping Team at the Australian Interschools Championships to be held in late September.<\/p>\n

Water Polo <\/strong><\/h4>\n
Junior Olympics<\/strong><\/h5>\n

During these school holidays, Elizabeth Shin participated in an intense water polo training program in Santa Barbara in preparation for the US Junior Olympics.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Junior Olympics are held in the US and is the world’s largest Water Polo competition, consisting of players and teams from several countries around the world. The competition is played in age groups and across 30 different venues across California.<\/p>\n

Elizabeth\u2019s team travelled to San Jose winning some very competitive games and only narrowly losing to the 2nd and 3rd placed teams.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Elizabeth’s Santa Barbara team placed 5th overall out of 96 teams in the U\u201914 girls age group. This is an outstanding achievement for an International competition. Congratulations Lizzie!<\/p>\n

Junior World Cup<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Good luck to Sienna Green who is representing Australia at the FINA World Water Polo Youth Championships in Belgrade, Serbia this week. We hope it is a successful tournament.<\/p>\n

AFL<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Well done to Yve Mitchell and Julia Machliss who represented NSW at the Australian U\u201915 AFL Championships. NSW placed 4th<\/sup> in a very closely contested competition. Both students enjoyed the challenge of stepping up from club football and had a wonderful time connecting with other AFL players from across Australia.<\/p>\n
