Teachers v. students netball game

Julie Bassett —

Game - Thursday 5 August 2021

Students or Teachers who will take the glory?

Not long ago Levi and Noah, both members of the Active Council, designed the idea of Teachers vs Students where the teachers and students would play a game of Netball. Noah and Levi picked 10 lucky names out of a hat from year 6. The people who were selected out of the hat were: Reuben Peterson, Lucas Winchester, Milana Inkster, Jade Parkinson, Kaiah Helsham and Mia McHarg.

And the teachers that volunteered were Jane R, Kellie, Kerry, Anne, Sanchia, Daniel, Jane B, Danielle and Kirsten.

The score in netball runs in 1s not 2s like basketball.

Jane Rutherford scored 6 points at the game and the teachers booted up to more points. Milana Inkster got a whopping hat trick to get the kids up to 3 but…

The score ended up with the teachers getting 9 points and the kids 5. On that day the kids had lost and the teachers got all the glory.

But there was one more mischievous event when Levi changed the scores on the board and in the end he changed the score from 10 to the children to 9 to the teacher (The teachers still won).
