Run, Jump, Throw


Her we are again with our coach Mr Webb. Today we were practicing our shotput skills. Hoo..HAAA!


Feast Day

Feast Day is always fun. We start with Mass for our Patron Saint Mary, next comes the parade of colourful classes. After morning tea comes the Talent Quest. It's a mighty display of our students performing talents; singing, dancing, the playing of musical instruments and rapping. Lunch time brings a feast that is very partyish and delicious. The day ends with Tabloids, with the Year 8's leading teams so well. Lots of gentle guiding, supporting, encouraging and the sharing of lollies!! Yum.

We are practising our running technique, getting our knees high, running on the balls of our feet and making our arms into an L shape. Lots of giggles!!
