​The Grade 6 students recently took part in their final gala day of the year, competing in a European Handball tournament. They faced off against five other schools from the Bridge Inn North district, showcasing their skills, teamwork, and sportsmanship. It was a fantastic day filled with excitement, laughter, and camaraderie. All students enjoyed the experience, playing hard and supporting each other throughout the day, making memories that will last well beyond the final whistle.

Yesterday 47 students from CLC and YYLC travelled to Meadowglen Athletics Track to compete in the Bridge Inn North District Athletics Carnival. They were blessed with perfect weather and had a fantastic day competing and cheering each other on.

We are thrilled to inform you that Mimi Hill and Marianna Anthony, two talented AFLW players from the Carlton Football Club, visited our school this week. They conducted an engaging clinic featuring kicking and handballing drills, followed by a lively Q&A session where students had the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the sport and the players' experiences. During recess, Mimi and Marianna joined the students on the oval for a fun kick-to-kick session, creating memorable moments and inspiring our young athletes.

This week in PE, our students celebrated NAIDOC Week by learning about some of Australia's remarkable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander athletes and the sports they excel in.

As a warm-up, they played a traditional Indigenous game called Apwerte, where students had to roll a ball between two bowling pins. They were inspired by Cathy Freeman and participated in a sprinting game, practiced netball skills like Donelle Wallam, played tennis like Ash Barty, honed their AFL goal-kicking with Charlie Cameron, developed basketball skills inspired by Patty Mills, and engaged in handballing target practice like Bobby Hill.

It was a fantastic opportunity for the students to recognize and appreciate the contributions of these outstanding athletes while having fun and staying active.
