We wrapped up Term 1 with an energetic and exciting Fun Run, and what a fantastic way to finish the term it was! The oval came alive with colour as students proudly dressed in their house colours, cheering each other on and giving it their all.

A huge congratulations to the students from CLC and YYLC who finished in the top 10 of their age groups – these students will now go on to represent our school at the District Cross Country on Wednesday, 28th May. We wish them all the best!
​
A big thank you to all the staff who helped with setting up and running the event, and a special shout-out to our amazing Grade 6 student leaders for supporting the younger students and assisting with pack-up. Your leadership and enthusiasm helped make the day a success!

Congratulations to all our students who participated in Term 1 Interschool Sport! It was fantastic to see so many students representing our school with great sportsmanship, teamwork, and enthusiasm across Cricket, Basketball, and Tee Ball.
​
We are proud of all teams for their amazing efforts and achievements throughout the season. Every game was played with determination and great team spirit — you should all be very proud!

We are looking forward to an exciting Term 2 of sport ahead!

​A huge thank you to Whittlesea Pacers Basketball and their amazing coaches Luke, Raheem, and Matt for running an incredible 6-week basketball program with our Grade 1–4 students at MPPS! Our students have learned so much, and their basketball skills have improved immensely. We’re so grateful for the time, effort, and energy the coaches brought to every session. Even Maddi has learned a great deal from the program, which she’ll continue to share in future PE lessons. Thank you again for such a positive and engaging experience!

Today’s lunchtime was filled with excitement as the Grade 6 students took on the staff in an epic basketball showdown! With the sun shining and a huge crowd of students cheering from the sidelines, the energy was electric.

Both teams brought their A-game, showing off teamwork, skill, and plenty of friendly competition. The students had speed and determination, while the staff relied on experience (and maybe a little extra height!). Every basket was met with roars from the crowd, and the game stayed close from start to finish.
In the end, after all matches were combined, the final score was a thrilling 10-10 draw—proving that both sides gave it their all! More than just a game, it was a fantastic display of sportsmanship, fun, and school spirit.

Already looking forward to the next rematch! 🏀👏
