A huge thank you to all members of the College community for their efforts over the 2024 Winter season. In particular those parents who helped out every weekend, the staff, coaches and Convenors as well as Year 12 students who will play their final round this coming weekend. We hope everyone can come and support these senior students. Debating still have two more rounds after this Friday evening.

Next week we immediately commence the Track and Field season at Queens Park on Monday from 3.30pm and any student is invited to take part.

The following Saturday, August 16 we have our first invitational carnival at ES Marks from 8am. Track and Field athletes are encouraged to participate in as many activities as possible but once your events are over on a Saturday you are not required to stay until the end of the carnival.

The Athletics season culminates with the CAS Championships at Homebush on Thursday, September 19 from 1pm-8pm. This event is a compulsory supporters duty for students in Years 7 & 12 and more information will be published closer to the date.

Congratulation to Owen and Jacob Roorda as well as Ryan McNamara who competed at the Australian Pool Lifesaving Championships over the weekend.

Jacob won 3 silver medals and 3 bronze medals, and Owen won 2 bronze medals. Owen and Ryan also received a silver medal for being part of the NSW team, which achieved 2nd place overall in the competition.
