Sporting Highlights
Central Region Athletics Carnival
On Tuesday 24th June a team of 60 enthusiastic and competitive students proudly represented St Joseph’s Merewether at the Central Region Athletics Carnival. Our athletes showed remarkable courage, determination, and resilience as they participated in a wide range of track and field events.
The day began with beautiful winter weather, but conditions soon changed as the rain set in. Despite the challenges, our students rose to the occasion with true St Joseph’s spirit, facing the elements with bravery and positivity. Their incredible sportsmanship was evident not only in their events but also in their enthusiastic cheering for every race and the warm encouragement they offered one another throughout the day. If there had been a medal for team spirit, St Joseph’s would certainly have taken home the gold!
A special thank you to Mrs O’Neill and Mrs Sciulli for their valuable support in taking on official duties in the field events.
We are proud to see so many of our students qualify to progress to the next stage – the Diocesan Carnival. We wish them every success as they continue their athletic journey.
It was an absolute privilege to serve as the team manager for such a dedicated and inspiring group of students. Thank you to all parents for your support and encouragement throughout the day.
