Term 1 is coming to an end and I would like to thank the team in the Sports Office for making it such a successful term. Our Invitational Volleyball Competition had great adherence from our students (more than 20 teams) as well as many teams from schools across Sydney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article you will see the many teams playing IGSA grand finals this weekend and I would like to thank Ms Bowcock for her diligence and care working on team lists, coach allocations and scheduling ensuring our students enjoy the best experience possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Netball is starting this weekend, when we embark on a journey in the Inner West Netball Association. Ms Gocher has put a lot of effort into selecting and grading the teams (including our representative teams training all year round) and I am sure it will be a successful season across our 27 teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We sadly farwell Ms Rachael Simmons who has got a promotional position close to home but before leaving she ensured that our Junior School Boys and Girls had a great term playing IPSHA Basketball and Football respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also thank Ms Larkin for holding a massive front on the back end of the department entering all data and ensuring all scheduling is done on time, facilitating student attendance and staff duty of care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are looking forward to seeing you all in term 2 and I wish you all a very safe and restful holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tildesley Shield Tennis Tournament<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From 19 to 20 March our students put their hearts and souls into their singles and doubles matches at the IGSA Tildesley Shield Tennis Tournament. We finished in 20th position \u2013 ahead from last year \u2013 and the College was very proud of how our students were fighting for every single point on the court and supporting one another outside of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations to our Badminton and Water Polo teams that competed in the IGSA Semi Finals over the weekend. Our SAN01 Water Polo team managed an 8-2 win against Queenwood progressing through to the finals. Sadly our SAN03 Badminton did not progress after a very close match against Meriden, they should be very proud of their season making it through to the Semi Finals undefeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
