AFL – Paul Kelly Cup
Unfortunately, due to other commitments, we have had to withdraw our teams for the Paul Kelly Cup this year. This event was postponed three times and eventually clashed with our calendar. We regret that this was the case; however, there will be lots more sporting opportunities throughout the year.

Rugby League and League Tag 
We arrived at Albion Park for a day of fun, friendship, and a competitive game or two. Our boys and girls teams had minimal experience; however, after a handful of training sessions prior to the day, we understood the basics.

The girls improved as the day went on, winning 1 game and losing 2.  The boys came away from the day with 3 losses and a draw, but all losses were by no more than 2 tries, and in every game, the boys had chances at victory.

A big thank you to Ms Martins for looking after the girls team. Also, a special mention to the parents who helped with coaching or cheered our efforts.  Last but not least, a few quotes from some of the attending students:

CHRISTIAN
The Footy Gala day was an amazing experience for the Year 6 students. I believe it was an extraordinary event that all schools could participate in.
JOSEPH
Our team was really small compared to the other teams, but we tried our hardest!
ALEYA
I won a game, woohoo!
SOPHIA
It was a great experience because we got to have a day off school, have fun and work hard as a team. We loved it!

It was so good to be back at a gala day again, after the events of the past 12 months. We cannot wait for the next one!

Mr Gilmore & Ms Martins
Thank you to Mr Gilmore and Mr Murphy for supporting the students in the lead up to the gala day and on the day.
