Last Round for Term 2

This week is the last round of winter activities for Term 2 against traditional rivals Knox Grammar School. Training for the final week of term will only be held on Monday and Tuesday.

NSW State Rugby Championships

Well done to all students who competed in the NSW State Rugby Championships last weekend, and especially to the Randwick U16 side captained by Oliver Aboud. This team were crowned premiers and had a large number of Waverley College students.

Also special mention to 13As player Josiah Manoufetoa, who was also part of the Manly U12 State premiers. It was great to see a number of his school teammates from other clubs, cheering him on in the final.

Volleyball

This coming week we also have a number of students trialing for CAS squads in Volleyball.

Attention: Supporters – Full Co-curricular Uniform or Academic Uniform Required at all Venues

A reminder to all students who will be supporting teams this weekend, that full Co-curricular uniform or College academic uniform are the only accepted versions at any venue, for both home and away.

Three Old Boys Selected for Prestigious Squads

I want to also make special mention of three Waverley College Old Boys:

• Jed Holloway (Class of 2010) who was selected this week for the Wallabies Squad to play England
• Ben Donaldson (Class of 2017) who was selected for Australia A to play Pacific Nations
• Ronald Volkman (Class of 2020) who was selected this week to start for the NZ Warriors against the Panthers in the NRL.

We wish these gentlemen well and will certainly be cheering them on for upcoming matches. We are running out of wall space at the Queens Park Pavilion for all of these legends of the College!
