3/4 Kanga 8's

The 3/4's were involved in a round robin Kanga 8's cricket day on Tuesday the 20th of October. We entered 3 teams consisting of an all boys, all girls and a mixed. All students had a great day and represented the school in great fashion. It was really good to see improvements in the skills and sportsmanship of cricket throughout the day. A big thank you to Melissa (our 3rd year pre-service teacher) and Mrs Blake for coaching the mixed and girls team. Also a big thank you to Kate Anderson (Caelan's mum) for contributing to the day with freshly cut fruit. It was a lovely suprise.

Here are the results:
Mixed team 0 - 3
Boys team 2 - 1
Girls team 3 - 0

Well done everyone. Can't wait for next year!!!
