Winter Activities Continue
Waverley College hosted St Stanislaus and All Saints from Bathurst last Saturday in the Rugby and winter certainly arrived with cold, rainy and blustery conditions. A huge thank you to all of the parents/carers who assisted in the canteen and on the BBQ with all teams playing home rugby fixtures.
There were some impressive results, including Jamie Granger’s match-winning try for the 3rd XV to beat All Saints 1st XV on the final siren.
Our 1st XI Football had a hard fought win up at Hornsby and 1sts Volleyball are now 3 from 3 in Division 1.
Uniform and Travel Reminders
We have a number of teams and fixtures playing away this coming weekend. Please allow for enough travel time for the busy Saturday traffic to arrive 30 minutes prior as a minimum to warm up effectively.
I would also like to remind all students who come and support their peers or 1sts teams that full Waverley College playing attire or winter uniform is the only acceptable gear to wear.
Rostrum Voice of Youth NSW State Finals
A huge congratulations to James Peate on qualifying for the Rostrum Voice of Youth NSW State Finals at Shore on 22 June from 2pm. James would love to have students willing to attend to support in full winter uniform. The competition concludes around 6pm. We wish James well for his preparations and the tournament.
Chess and Debating
Just a reminder to our Chess and Debating teams that they still are required to attend their fixtures this Friday evening despite the early finish due to May Procession.
Good luck to all activities this weekend!

Legends Coaching Week
Last week, using our Old Boy and Parents network, we hosted our annual Legends Coaching Week. This provided opportunities for our students to learn from experienced and professional players and coaches. These sessions allowed students to receive feedback on individual and team skills whilst gaining an insight into the requirements of a professional athlete.
We are appreciative of the time and support our Old Boys and parents/carers were able to give us and look forward to continue strengthening these relationships in the future. Thank you to the following people:
- Morgan Turinui
- Stephen Hoiles
- Bradford Burke
