SPORTS REPORT, WEEK 9
Junior School Sports
The Junior School have been busy running and jumping and getting prepared for the upcoming Junior School Sports to be held on Thursday 1st April to finish off a wonderful first term. A big thank you to those who have offered to help, it’s great to have parents involved in the day. It’s not too late to help out and we would love to see families come along to join us on the day.
Swimming
We’re off to the state finals! We had a successful day in Horsham with many swimmers qualifying for the next round of swimming in Melbourne. A big congratulations to the 12/13 girls Freestyle relay consisting of Charlie Bowman, Isla Dixon, Addison Conheady and Niamh Ginley, who took home gold! We also had the girls 11 year old Freestyle relay as well as the boys and girls 9-13 Medley relay take home 3rd! An outstanding effort from the girls 10 year old Freestyle relay who waited until the very end to complete their race, you were brilliant!
A big thanks to Andrew for driving the bus, to Georgia and Matthew for organising the team and to all the parents who attended and helped to support all of the swimmers, we couldn’t do it without you!
District Athletics
After the recent School Sports, Physical Education classes and lunchtime trials we have been able to select our team to represent St Joseph’s at the upcoming District Athletics Carnival on Monday 29th March. Congratulations to the following students who have qualified in 2021.
There will be an optional training session for all District Athletes this Wednesday 24th March from 3:30pm - 4:30pm on the Allen Oval. Parents can collect their children from the Loop from 4:15pm. For those students who cannot attend on Wednesday, there will be an opportunity to practice for relays and individual events at lunchtime on Tuesday and Thursday this week. Children can wear their sports gear on these days.

Golf Tryouts
During the final week of this term, all Year 5/6 students will have a try at Golf during our PE lessons. Students are welcome to bring their own clubs, otherwise the school has a number of clubs to use for practice. We will be selecting students from lessons and some extra practice early next term before the District Competition on Friday 14th May.
