JTCC SPORT UPDATE - Term 3, Week 1
Welcome back to Term 3. We have a busy start to the term, with MISA trials happening to finalise our teams for the Term 3 competition, as well as number of Diocesan and external carnivals happening in the first few weeks.
After 2 Terms, JTCC sits in 2nd place in the MISA Champion School tally with 319 points, not far behind MCCC on 350 points. I’m sure we will close the gap in term 3 and 4.
A few general reminders:
- Students who missed out on MISA or DIO teams , there are many future opportunities to represent JTCC, keep an eye out on the Compass Newsfeed.
- Any students that would like to request to change groups for 9/10 REC - you need to see Mrs. Roberts at her desk. You must do this prior to Tuesday lunch time.
- A reminder that consent for all sporting events must be given via the Parent Portal on Compass. Please ring the school if you have issues logging in or accessing Events.

CONGRATULATIONS
Grace and Nicholas Augustine played for the NSW State Indoor Cricket Teams to play in the Junior Indoor Cricket National Championships . Grace for the U/18s Girls and Nicholas for the U/14s Boys. Both were in the top 2 players for NSW for the Championship, and were both selected in the Australian Cricket All Stars teams for their respective divisions. What an amazing achievement for these talented siblings, well done!
Congratulations to Alice Stephenson (year 7) one of our First Nations footballers who took centre stage for Football NSW and won the inaugural NAIDOC Cup during the holidays. Northern NSW Football and Football NSW selected one male and one female squad each with players aged between 14 and 16 to play each other on Awabakal land at Lake Macquarie Regional Football Facility.
