Year 5-6 Netball Gala Day 18/03/2021
We had 5 teams attend the 5/6 Netball Gala Day last Thursday. Thanks to Miss Ceccato and Mrs Shelley for attending on the day. I would also like to thank our coaches and umpires Nadine Sadler, Wayne Budd, Kate Watson, Danielle Salloum, Amelia Chalker, Ruby Budd and Jack Quantrill for all their help on the day. Without the support of our wonderful volunteers, we simply cannot send the volume of teams that we do. We are truly blessed at our school, thank you!
The carnival was very competitive and all of the teams represented our school with great pride and determination. One of our teams will advance to the finals stage of the competition on May 7.
Year 3-4 Netball Gala Day 24/03/2021
We sent four teams the years 3 and 4 Netball Gala Day on Wednesday. A huge thankyou to our coaches Kelly Sheehan, Emma Gahan, Pamela Jenkins, Emily Patterson and Adam Gresham for giving up their time so our students could have a very enjoyable day.
The weather was kind to us after a poor start to the week and we managed to sneak in the day with no delays. Our students played some great netball and the standard of skill and teamwork improved dramatically throughout the day. Many of our students already play netball with the MTS club on weekends however we had some first starters who had a blast and look like they will be taking up netball in the future.
I would also like the thank our umpires, Eva Huetter, Maddi Partridge, Hayley Cremin and Luci Polegubic, from 6 Charcoal who reluctantly had the day off school to officiate.
Regional Swimming Carnival
On Monday 29th March we have a number of students competing in the North Canberra/Gungahlin Regional swimming carnival. Good luck to our competitors and thankyou to Nadine Sadler and Lee Revell for being our schools volunteers on deck and Wendy Ceccato for taking the team.
MTS Swimming Team: Ryley Power, Joel Gahan, Evan Konig, Owen McIntosh, Ethan Ciceran, Karl Niesen, William Ciceran, Quinn Truong, Milana Sadler-Pather, Charlotte Power, Lily Martin, Eva Huetter, Isabelle Shipley, Sophie Martin, Mikaela Budd, Madison Dawes, Isabella Dawes and Maddie Partridge. Good luck everyone.
Cross Country Carnival
We ran our Cross Country running carnival last Friday. The event was a great success thanks to Mr Hughes and Mr Hart who ran the carnival seamlessly in Mr Roweth’s absence. Mr Hughes got into school extra early to measure out the course with a trundle wheel (surely there is an app for measuring distances these days). Congratulations to all the winners. The school team to represent our school at the regional carnival will be announced next term.
