As we head towards the end of the term, I would like to share a reflection about how busy but also how rewarding the term has been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Co-curricular Activities domain we saw the Mandarin lessons take off at Del Monte and Senior Campuses very successfully. A huge thank you to teachers Grace Ng (Years 5-12) and Wendy (Chen) Li (Years 2-4) for working tirelessly to ensure our students master this beautiful language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms Tiana Pangallo has been appointed our Debating and Public Speaking coordinator and she has been delivering a great program with several students being at the CSDA Public Speaking finals and 90 students trialling for our debating teams this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ran our Years 3-12 Swimming Carnival at SOPAC and we had a remarkable day. From there we had outstanding performances in the Representative Pathways in Senior (CGSSSA) and Junior Schools (CPS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been very busy on Saturdays, hosting sports for more than 2,000 people each weekend and showcasing to all the visitors our very own ‘Volleyball Barbecue’. I would like to send a huge thank you to all the Representative Volleyball families for giving up their time each weekend, making a difference as they raise funds for the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our IPSHA Footballers in Years 3-6 had a great finish to Term 1 displaying high quality football but more importantly enjoying every second on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, I would like to congratulate the following IGSA Sport teams who will be playing finals\/play offs on 6 April:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Touch Football: SAN01 and SAN08
Badminton: SAN03
Tennis: SAN05, SAN06 and SAN07.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would love to thank all of our community members: students, staff, parents and families for all the support given to Sport and Co-curricular at Santa Sabina College and I wish everyone a happy and safe Easter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Representative Volleyball Update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It has been a busy few weeks for some of the representative athletes, with final selections for the all-star team soon to be released, and multiple athletes on the Gold Coast competing at both the Australian Schools Cup and the Australian Youth Beach Volleyball Championships. The start of the week saw five representative athletes \u2013 Alexis Gittani, Annabel Cantali, Emily Morgan, Mackenzie Bedford and Violet Addabbo \u2013 represent NSW at the national championships in their respective age group. Some outstanding performances from all athletes with some fantastic finishing results, Special mention to Mackenzie for finishing fifth in the country with her partner at the tournament!

Netball Update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After several weeks of selections and grading, our 25 netball teams are once again ready to take the court.  Training has commenced and training days and times can be located in VO and under your daughter’s schedule via the College App.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The draw is also now available and can be found in VO and PlayHQ and will be uploaded to the College App shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first game will be played on 6 April and while we have coaches for every team we are still in need of several team managers which we would like to lock in before Round 1.  This role can be shared, so please consider volunteering and sharing the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wishing all of our players, coaches, managers and umpires a very successful season ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
