Diocesan Cross Country

On Tuesday, 7 May 2019, 24 students represented St Paul's at the Diocese of Wollongong Cross Country Championships at Nowra. All our students ran the tough Willandra track with great determination. We achieved some fantastic results throughout the day with special congratulations to the following students on their medals.

Bronte Clarke - 2nd - U11 Girls

Harrison Kourembes - 1st - 8/9 Boys

School Athletics Carnival

On Wednesday, 22 May 2019, we held our School Athletics Carnival at Campbelltown Athletics Stadium.  Our students wore their sporting house colours proudly in a friendly and competitive spirit  throughout the day. The day saw some records broken on the track and in the field. It was the team novelty event points again that enabled Macarthur to take out the crown of winning school sporting house. Without the support of our parent & staff community we would have been unable to hold such a successful event.  So thank you

Congratulations to the students who will be competing at the Western Region Athletics Carnival on Friday 9 August 2019 at Campbelltown Athletics Stadium.

Finals and Age champion ribbons will be presented this Wednesday morning.

Western Region Netball

On Thursday, 27 July 2019, 90 students in 10 teams represented St Paul's at the Western Region Netball Gala Day. Congratulations to all our students who displayed fantastic sportsmanship throughout the day. The primary purpose of the diocesan gala days is about students playing and experiencing the game in a non-competitive environment. It was fabulous to see all our students developing new skills and enjoying themselves during every game.

Finally a huge thank you to all the parents and teachers who assisted and offered assistance on the day in various roles. Without your contribution, we would not be able to attend these gala days.

Kindergarten ANZ Hot Shots

As part of the sporting schools program in Term 2, students participated in a Tennis program. As part of this School Partnership program, we were able to apply for a program focussed on Kindergarten students. We were lucky enough to be successful, and every Kindergarten child will today take home a free racquet thanks to the ANZ Tennis Hotshots program. This program is aimed to encourage our students to move, have fun, play and be active in the community. We would love to see photos of our future tennis stars in action at home.
