Sporting Highlights

Cross Country

Last Thursday we were blessed with an amazing day to traverse Empire Park and its surrounds for the cross country. Students from Year 2 to 6 enjoyed the beach view as they ran either 2km or 3km under humid conditions, either for enjoyment or in an effort to be selected for the diocesan cross-country team. The top 3 qualifying boys and girls from each age group will compete on the 14th of May at Maitland Park.

We extend our congratulations to Eve C, Christian B, Hugo C, Nash D, Alice K, Zara E, Sebastian C, Bodhi P, Reggie M, Amelia R, Ruby F, Beatrice P, Hugo S, Adrian F, Thomas B, Eve D, Billie, D, Ellie V, Luca O, Riley B, Vincent M, Ava K, Harriet M, Lila K

We would also like to extend a huge thank you to our parent sport committee and volunteers. This day would not have been possible without the help and organisation of Renee Mantle, Anna Graham, Julian Johnson and Karen Childs and all the other amazing parents who gave up their time on the day to be a pace setter, photographer, director of traffic, finish line cheer squad, ice block aficionado or cow bell ringer. You are all super stars!

Diocesan Winter Sport trials

Over the past few weeks, St. Joseph’s talented athletes showcased their skills in various winter sports trials. We are pleased to announce that several of our students have been selected to proceed to the next level, representing our school with excellence and determination.

Billy G, Alex B, Beatrice P and Saphina D demonstrated exceptional talent as they represented St. Joseph’s in the diocesan soccer team. Their performances were amazing, filled with skill and determination. A special congratulations to Billy, Alex and Beatrice for their selection in the Polding team – a testament to their hard work and dedication.

Vincent M and Joseph C left a lasting impression at the Rugby League trials, demonstrating both toughness and skill. Their teamwork and enthusiasm were truly commendable. We extend our congratulations to Vinnie for his selection in the Polding team, where he will proudly represent our region.

We are very proud of our sporting stars and we know that they represented our school with pride and sportsmanship. We look forward to hearing about your successes still to come.
