Runners up at SISS Touch Championships!

A fantastic effort from our girls to finish 2nd at the weekend in the SISS Touch Championships.  After a clean sweep on Day 1 the team won against Villa Maria 7-0, Burnside 6-5 and then faced Columba College in the final, where we went down 7-2.  

The team were lead well by Holly Rowcroft and Lashaan Ashton and the off field positivity flowed onto the field.  Thank you to our coach and management team and to Tania Cleland for the outstanding photos.

Surf Life Saving

Last week Charlotte and Victoria Aburn competed at the Surf Life Saving Nationals.  After a huge and successful season, Victoria claimed 2 Bbronze medals and Charlotte finished with 2 Golds and a Silver, as well as being named top Under 17 NZ Athlete. Congratulations to you both!

Clay Trap Shooting

Isla Wilson competed in the Clay Trap Shooting Nationals the a few weeks ago.  She had a great time away and would love to see the sport grow at St Hilda's.

If you are interested in learning this sport please email Mrs Parker or contact Isla as she is the Sports Liaison for Clay Trap Shooting.  Training is on Wednesday afternoons at Waldronville.  Current players use the Tolcarne van to get out there.

Winter trials

Over the next few weeks (before the end of term) netball, basketball and hockey trials will start.  It is not always possible to avoid clashes but we do our best around court and turf availability.  If any students are still involved in summer sport, this is to be a priority over the trials. Students will be notified by email around trial dates and times.  We will do our best to most the full calendar on social media as soon as we can.
