SPORT

National Cross Country Titles

Despite battling a horrible cold, Alex Waterworth has brought home TWO medals from the National Cross Country Titles held from Saturday 24th August to Monday 26th August!

On Saturday Alex ran in his individual 3km race placing 35th overall, and fastest 11 year old boy in Australia! Alex ran the track in 11 minutes 13 seconds, shy of his personal best of 10 minutes 20 seconds. Alex said, "The course was hard because it was flat".

Each competitor's result is then added to each State's overall result, with Alex and the QLD team placing 3rd and taking home the bronze medal!

After a day of rest, Alex then competed in the 1500m x 6 boys and girls 10 - 12 year old relay event, with the team placing second and receiving the silver medal! 

What an outstanding result for Alex' first time competing in Cross Country! Congratulations Alex, you have made Joey's proud!

Primary Futsal Cup

30 Primary students travelled to Brisbane on Wednesday 21st August to participate in the Primary Futsal Cup. All players brought skill and determination to the courts and scored some awesome team goals! Our 11 year old Girls Team, who came 2nd twice last year, smashed the competition, winning the final and taking the title of Champions! Thank you to Mrs Courtney Law, Mr Jacob Steele and the Year 12 students who assisted with coaching.
