Mackillop Cross Country
The congratulations keep coming for Year Four superstar, Henry Galland. This week he competed as a member of the Mackillop Cross Country team. Henry ran the 2km course at Eastern Creek and placed 15 out of 25 runners. Another fantastic and commendable result in the last few weeks for this young sportsperson.
Mackillop Girls and Boys Hockey
Success all round for our Hockey players. The Girls Mackillop team were undefeated over the three days of competition and in fact did not have one point scored against them. Sophia Galland was recognised for her sportsmanship and leadership skills by being named Captain of the Mackillop Girls team.
The Mackillop Boys team finished third at the conclusion of the week's competition.
St Mary's students and staff were able to watch the final games on Thursday and were super impressed with the skill and team work from both Girls and Boys teams.
At the conclusion of the PSSA competition, the NSW Girls and Boys Teams were announced. Both Sophia and Henry were named as members. An absolutely outstanding result for them both. Sophia was named as a member of the NSW Team last year but due to covid, it resulted in being only a Merit Team. This year both students will participate at the School Sport Australia Competition against every state in Australia. This year the competition will be held in Canberra from the 21-26 August.
In addition Mrs. Rachael Croker's son, Ollie (who played in South Coast team) was also named in the NSW Boys Team.
Our CONGRATULATIONS to them all for such outstanding and well deserved achievements.
