On Thursday 7th May, we had our first foray back into interschool sport after many, many years away from the competition. We had a small team who competed at the Banyule/Nillumbik Divisional Athletics at Meadowglen International Stadium in Epping. The weather was atrocious with wind, rain and bitter cold, but these students did us proud with their resilience and effort on the day. It was wonderful to see them dig deep to fight the elements to represent the college and show off their talent.
Congratulations to the following students who placed in their events:
Alex B (Year 10 Arts) – 1st in long jump and triple jump, 2nd javelin
Will T (Year 11 Pre-App) – 3rd in 400m
Coby T (Year 11 Pre-App) – 1st in discus
Eve M (Year 12 VCE) – 2nd in 400m
Kianah S (Year 12 VCE) – 3rd in long jump, 2nd in 800m
Alex P (Year 12 VM) – 2nd in javelin and 400m, 3rd in triple jump and shot put
Max K (Year 12 VCE) – 1st in discus, 3rd in long jump
Ruby, Kianah, Eve and Via (18 – 20 years) – 2nd in the relay
A special shout out to Ziggy from Year 10 Tech who came 4th in the 3000m open event against the older students. We look forward to seeing what Ziggy can do in the coming years.
We have lnterschool Netball coming up this week, with 3 senior teams entered – 2 girls teams and 1 boys teams. We’re excited to see what we can do with this competition as well.
