We are thrilled to celebrate the remarkable achievements of our talented students at the recent Diocesan Cross Country Championships held on the 23rd of May at the picturesque "Willandra" in Cambewarra. A team of 20 St. Mary's students travelled to the event, showcasing their running prowess and demonstrating incredible determination in the face of tough competition. 

 

We are delighted to announce that three of our outstanding athletes have qualified for the next level of the competition, the NSWCPS MacKillop Cross Country Trial. This prestigious event will take place on the 13th of June at The Sydney International Equestrian Centre. Let's give a round of applause to Arlo S, who secured an impressive 8th place, Adele B, who showcased her skills and finished in a remarkable 7th place, and Evie P, who excelled and claimed an outstanding 4th place. We wish them the best of luck as they progress to the NSWCPS MacKillop Cross Country Trial, where they will represent our school with pride.

Congratulations to all the students who participated in the Diocesan Cross Country Championships. Your commitment to sportsmanship, resilience, and healthy competition is truly admirable. We applaud you for your achievements and wish you continued success in your athletic pursuits.

On the 9th of May, our very own St. Mary's Demons travelled down to Batemans Bay to compete in the AFL Paul Kelly Cup. The team put on a spectacular display of determination, teamwork, and sportsmanship, showcasing their incredible skills despite their limited experience. Let's relive the highlights of this memorable day!

The St. Mary's Demons faced off against three formidable opponents: Milton A, Milton B, and St. Peters. From start to finish, our talented team left their mark on the field and demonstrated that hard work and dedication can truly make a difference.

One of the standout aspects of the day was the incredible goal-scoring abilities displayed by our players. Louis, Nat, Ryder, Sam, Charli, and Torin showcased their prowess in front of the goal, delighting the crowd with their accurate shots and remarkable skills. Their efforts played a significant role in securing the team's success throughout the tournament.

In addition to the impressive attack, we witnessed outstanding defensive performances by Henry and Anika. They fearlessly guarded our goal, making it difficult for the opposition to make their way to the forward. Their commitment to the team's defence was truly commendable and contributed greatly to the overall success of the St. Mary's Demons.

The team's exceptional performance was not limited to the attacking and defensive aspects of the game. Alexandra and Arlo, with their unwavering determination, fearlessly took on the challenges both in attack and defence. Their resilience and courage were evident throughout the matches, inspiring their teammates and earning them well-deserved applause.

Go Demons!
