Weekend Fixtures
This weekend is the first full round of fixtures against Knox and St Aloysius’. We will continue to re-select teams over the first couple of rounds due to the impact of the weather, and thank you in advance to all students and parents for their patience with this.
Appreciation to Year 12 Parents and Carers in Supporters’ Groups
I also want to say a huge thank you to those Year 12 parents/carers who will be stepping away from their roles within some of the sporting Supporters’ Groups, as well as those parents who have put their hands up to step into those roles. These parents/carers are critical in the delivery of hospitality and Presentation Evenings, as well as raising much-needed funds. There is always a great sense of community and connectedness, and we are always needing more parents/carers to be involved.
Old Boys’ Achievements
Well done to some of the Waverley Old Boys from 2021 playing for NSW and ACT Rugby on the weekend, as well as Sam Talakai, Ben Donaldson and Jed Holloway on their selections for the Wallabies Spring Tour to Europe.
