In accordance with the NESA guidelines, our Year 10 students, under the guidance and instruction of Mr Jefferys, our Teacher Librarian & Learning Technology Co-ordinator, have been completing the modules. This is a great learning opportunity for our students, as they move into their senior years, to know and understand the principles and practices of good scholarship.
SPORT REPORT TERM 4
Round 2 Week 4 VS Oran Park Anglican College
Reminder: The weather is heating up as we head into Summer. It is really important that students are wearing their hats, bringing a water bottle and applying sunscreen whenever they are participating in practical activities.
This week we faced Oran Park Anglican College in a series of friendly matches. All teams demonstrated a fantastic effort and built on their round 1. This term is a bit shorter than terms 1-3, with many of our competing schools finishing the term at different dates. Our teams have three more rounds to play before the Finals/ Interzone finals on the 1st of December. Good luck to all teams and coaches, keep training and working hard each week.

9-0 |
After a disappointing first week the girls bounced back with a huge win over a strong Oran Park outfit. The girls fielded first and kept Oran Park from scoring any runs through some smart fielding. This gave the girls confidence that we could pull off a victory if we could get some runs on the board. Some good hitting and smart movement between bases we managed to get 5 home. The second innings played out in a similar fashion and the girls ran out 9-0 winner. Well deserved! MVP - Laura Augustine |

2-1 |
A close game with JT winning the 1st set and OPAC winning the 2nd set by 4 points. After a team briefing, the team dominated the third and final set, winning the game with a 9 point lead in the 3rd set. The girls once again demonstrated exceptional teamwork and sports’woman’ship! MVP: Fanaafi Fauese |

Fantastic effort by all but let down by some technical skills. Well done to all in a very close game. MVP: Samiuela Angianga |

7-8 Girls AFL |
Mrs. Stanley |
OPAC |
10-11 |
This week the girls started strong with a fantastic early goal by Serafina. Unfortunately we lost some momentum and allowed the opposition into the game. With a short game this week, due to lack of fields/umpires, we were unable to come back. Another great effort, looking forward to next week. MVP - Gese Satuatasi |

7-8 Boys AFL |
Mr. Geribo |
JT |
62-0 |
The boys had a really good game today with an excellent result of 62-0. Although we did kick more behinds than what we would’ve wanted to. All in all, it was a great effort and a great result. MVP - Darcy Wilson |

9-10 Mixed Frisbee |
Mr. Bodeker |
JT |
24-15 |
Another dominant performance from John Therry saw us take home a 24-15 victory against a competitive Oran Park Anglican side. We set the tone early, dominating proceedings with the first four touchdowns of the game. Despite a late comeback, we were never in danger of losing the game and deserved the victory. MVP this week goes to Kaylah Marshall who was involved in everything. Well done. |

Mr. Chapman |

100-30 |
Another great game from the John Therry boys. We batted first and had a shaky start before consolidating to a very good total. We bowled well and fielded flawlessly to restrict OPAC to 30 runs. MVP - Riley Wilson |
|
7-8 Boys Oztag |
Mr. McGrath |
JT |
10-2 |
A fantastic effort from John Therry especially in the November heat. The boys dominated in attack and defence with Brent leading the way scoring a total of four tries himself. Some positive signs moving forward! MVP: Brent Hammond |

7-8 Girls Oztag |
Mrs. Davidson |
JT |
7-1 |
The girls played a brilliant defensive game. Jorja, Bridget and Erin were particularly strong, with Bridget, Grace and Savanah making some fast breaks to set up opportunities to score. A great team effort. MVP: Grace O’Reilly |
Our Annual Sports assembly was scheduled to be held in Week 9, unfortunately due to all the event cancellations as a result of COVID-19, the formal assembly has also been cancelled.
