End of Term 2 Sport

The weather had another significant impact on the first full round of fixtures last weekend and has been an unfortunate theme this term. We were still able to play a few fixtures with the 1sts and 2nds Football and the 16A’s, 2nds and 1st XV Rugby playing their fixtures against St Aloysius. The 2nd XI Football result of 7-1 was certainly a highlight of the weekend.

Congratulations to Evan Rowbowtham (Year 9) who continues to perform at the highest levels with his victory in the NSWCIS Cross Country trials.  We wish him well for the next round of racing at the State Championships.

We have a number of our Debating teams that have progressed through to the final rounds of the CSDA finals this week, as well as a couple automatically qualifying for the quarter finals next week. We wish these teams well! Please come and support the Year 12 group on Friday at 5.30pm in the College Library.

I had the pleasure of attending the 2024 Cadet Unit passing out parade and Dining In Night on Sunday. Congratulations to all award winners and the graduating cohort of the unit, and a huge congratulations to Maj. Julie-Anne De Kantzow, Lt. Jessica Stanley and all of the Cadet Unit staff on an excellent event.

We have a big round of fixtures this weekend against local rivals Cranbrook. This is always a competitive round but I also want to remind all students, parents and spectators of the CAS and College Codes of Conduct and expectations around behaviour, respect and correct attire. We would expect any member of our community in attendance at any fixture on the weekend to represent the College to the highest standards.
