The SHM Students have had a mammoth sport week and we could not be prouder sharing their results!
National School Basketball States Championships
In the National School basketball state championships Toby Roper-Marshall and Cassidy Thomson are playing amazingly.
The NSW U12Girls have played strongly this week. Cassidy was highest point scorer in the Qld pool game and doing really well. The NSW girls fought for the Bronze medal against SA (3rd or 4th place). NSW beat SA in the pool game, although they are a strong team and played well but in the end SA won 44-37, QLD winning the Bronze medal.
The boys U12 (Toby’s team) have had a harder run and playing off 6th and 7th spot this morning. Toby was also the top point scorer in most of his games. Well done NSW!
Eastern Region Trials
Yesterday 30 students from our school travelled to Sydney Olympic Park Athletics Centre for the Eastern Region Trials. It was a wonderful day out at Sydney Olympic Park! Beautiful blue skies, no wind, positive vibes all around and not a Bin Chook in sight! Well, not until 11:30am when students started eating their lunches. The day was filled with good times, laughs and success!
There was a wonderful team spirit amongst the group (including from the supporting parents), sportsmanship and comraderie! A great day (albeit long) was had by all and all Sacred Heart Students should be commended for their efforts, team work and behaviour.
A big thank you to the parents who gave up their time to transport each other to and from the event and came to support our team!
We truly have a wonderful community.
