Director of Co-curricular, Mr Steve O'Donnell
CAS Track and Field
Our College Track and Field team continued to perform well at the invitational last weekend at ES Marks. Our throwers, jumpers and relays were all outstanding in particular. Mr Jeremy Roff and Ms Rebecca Gair have invested many hours into ensuring the success of our Athletics program and we are lucky to have such dedicated staff and coaches.
The CAS Track and Field Championships are on Thursday, September 19 at Homebush and Years 7 and 12 are required to attend as part of a compulsory supporters duty. Students will depart the College at 1pm and return to the College, Maroubra Junction or Hurstville by 9pm.
For those students wishing to return to either Maroubra or Hurstville please ensure that they sign up for these buses in the wellbeing centre before the day of the Championships.
Full College winter uniform is required and students will be provided with food but also must bring their own water bottles. Parents and supporters are welcome to attend but will need to pre-purchase tickets on the link sent out on the College App. There are food vendors at the venue, however, prices are high and the lines are long. Students are welcome to bring their own food.
Well done to Evan Rowbowtham who placed first at the National Cross Country Championships last weekend, as well as Koji Howard who finished in the top 30 in the country.
Best wishes to our Cadet Unit who are at Appin this weekend for their first bivouac of the program.
A reminder to all other students that summer pre-season has commenced for a number of teams and activities and that most sports have trials on Saturday September 21.
Next Thursday, September 12 we have our Winter Co-curricular awards assembly and any award winners parents are welcome to join us.
