Well done to the following students selected to represent Wollongong at the Mackillop Trials in May.

Sporting Schools Grant
In Term 1 St Pauls was successful in applying for a Sporting Schools Grant. This grant has allowed the school to engage TriSkills Sports to deliver the Launchpad Gymnastics (Year 1), AFL (Year 3) & Tennis (Year 5 with Mrs Groot).  These programs will introduce the children through a sequential program to fundamental gymnastics, AFL and Tennis skills.

Cross Country Carnival
On Monday, 20 March 2019, we held our Competitive Cross Country at the Camden Bicentennial Equestrian Park. In the hot & steamy conditions, all students ran the 2km course with enormous determination and St Paul’s spirit.  Good luck to the students who will be competing at the Wollongong Diocese Cross Country Championships on Tuesday, 7 May at "Willandra" Browns Mt Road, Nowra.
