Class 8 Netball Unit

Class 8 has recently completed their netball unit, and it has been such a pleasure to watch their development over the term. From the very first session, students showed great enthusiasm and a willingness to learn the rules, strategies, and techniques of the game. As the weeks progressed, so did their skills — including passing, shooting, footwork, and defensive play.

What was especially impressive was the way students worked together to build teamwork and communication, which are key components of successful netball. The unit concluded with a high-energy round-robin tournament that showcased just how far the class had come. Every student participated with great spirit and sportsmanship, and the final games were a testament to their hard work and improvement. A huge well done to Class 8 — your dedication and positive attitude did not go unnoticed!

Class 10 Squash at Club Sierra

Class 10 has been diving into the fast-paced world of squash over the past few weeks, with sessions taking place at Club Sierra. For many, it was a brand-new sport, and the first session was full of laughter, cautious movement, and a few dramatic duck-and-dodge moments! However, it didn’t take long for students to gain confidence, and their commitment to improving has been fantastic.

Throughout the lessons, students have been learning key elements such as racket control, serving technique, positioning on the court, and the importance of quick reflexes. It’s been great to see the class challenge themselves, support each other, and gradually build a stronger understanding of the game.

We’re only partway through the term, and already there has been significant progress. I’m genuinely excited to see how much further Class 10 can go — they’re off to a great start!

Basketball Carnival – Term 3

I am currently looking into the possibility of taking some school teams (Classes 7–9) to a local basketball carnival in Term 3. If you are a parent with experience in basketball and would be willing to umpire, your support would be greatly appreciated. You don’t need to be badged just have an understanding of the game and some experience umpiring.

Please email me at sjones@pws.wa.edu.au if you are interested or would like more information.
