Over the past number of weeks our students have been challenging themselves on the stage, courts,
fields, tracks, water and fairways just to name a few. I have previously said and I\u2019ll keep saying how
impressed we all are for those students who strive for excellence, overcoming adversity, represent
their school and clubs to be the best they can be. The following are but a few of those who have
impressed over these past few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Dance teams have come a long way over the past three years under the leadership of Ms Bryony
Williams. Watching them perform at the Ryde Eisteddfod gave me goose bumps with pride. I was so
impressed with their level of skill and execution and I urge all our community to take a moment to
watch these students perform. Congratulations to all our teams from our primary members to our
leaders, you are representing the College with pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following students have excelled in their chosen sporting discipline;
Annika Ingwersen (Cross Country), Faith Ata (Rugby Sevens), Amani Jamerson (Water Polo), Peter
Domingo (Tennis, who was selected to compete in Monaco recently), Honey Kim (Golf), Lily
Stewart (Athletics), Emma Wheadon (Athletics), Sophia Gerakas (Snowsports) All these students
along with other sporting teams such as our Futsal team, our Representative Volleyball teams, as well
as our Senior Tennis team of Cara Cuzzocrea, Rosanna Cartwright, Heer Arora and Angelique
Holtham who came so close to winning the gold medal in the CCC Tennis championship only going
down in the final set by one point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Term 3 sports have started and will continue for the rest of this term. Last week I tried to watch sports
across a number of venues which I enjoy each Saturday. What I did not enjoy though was the number
of students who turned up late or who just did not turn up at all. There is nothing more frustrating for
our teams when a team member lets their team down by not arriving at their scheduled match, or turns
up as the match is about to start. If you register for a sport I urge you to consider your team and
ensure you turn up to training, arrive at your matches early and enjoy the sport with your teammates
win, lose or draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Netball season is coming to the pointy end of the season with a good number of our teams now in
contention for the finals. It is now that I would like to see an increase in the tempo towards training
and matches so that we all end our seasons on a high. I wish all our teams the very best and no matter
the results we are always gracious in both winning and defeat. Positive on and off the court is the
minimum we expect from all our community. I am looking forward to watching our students in the
next few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Term 4 sports registrations have been out for a week and these registrations will be closing shortly.
Please sign up for the sport you are interested in competing in so that you will not be disappointed
once these are closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wishing our students all the best in the coming weeks including our Representative Athletics team
who will be picked to compete at the CGSSSA Championship on 12 August.
