Year 12 PE Studies students paired up to compete in the School Sports WA Badminton competition last Friday. Participating as part of their Practical Performance assessment, students were able to put their skills to the test in a series of round robin games against local schools. Congratulations to Caitlyn Ribbons and Gabby Bechard who made it through to the quarter finals!

Girls AFL is back after 15 years at our campus! Sporty students from Years 10-12 hit the field for their first training session this week, coached by Year 12 student Dane Webster. We can’t wait to see these footballers kicking goals when the season starts next term. Go girls!

Students from Carramar and Duncraig recently spent for 5 days in Canberra and the AIS, where they lived, breathed and ate with our elite sporting stars!
During that time students attended various lectures, participated in clinics ran by the male and female Australian basketball players, attended fitness sessions on land and in the water, wrestled it out in a waterpolo session, and ate and slept in the athletes facilities.
Students were buzzing on the flight home and we look forward to taking another group in 2020!!
Students have been getting out into the fresh air over the past few weeks, perfecting their sailing, canoeing and fishing skills as part of their Outdoor Ed classes.

The 2018 swimming carnival was a great success with an excellent level of participation in so many events across all ages and genders. The weather was looking very ordinary first thing in the morning but the cloud cover meant that student’s weren’t getting overheated between events. Thank you to all the volunteers, parents, staff and students for an excellent effort on the day to deliver a fun carnival.
Below are a few snapshots from the day.

Brave Year 12 students took on staff in a game of basketball. This challenge has become an annual event.
The game was exciting and nail biting with the Year 12’s triumphantly winning.
