Sport Assembly - Tuesday 8th December
The final week of sport for 2020 was held on Tuesday 8th December with a sports assembly and year group competition consisting of sports such as touch football, basketball, netball, OzTag, Ultimate Frisbee and newcombe ball being played.
At the Sports Assembly, students were recognised for their participation and achievement in sporting events that were conducted throughout the year. Two guest speakers, Kieran Govers (retired Australian Hockey Field Player) and Jacob Poscoliero (Australian Football player and Macarthur Bulls Development Officer) provided important messages about participation in sport and the importance of sustained effort and resilience in every activity.
