Sports Awards

As we continually to strive towards a balanced program amongst our students busy lifestyles we aim to meet the competitive, health and wellbeing needs of all of our students.  Last week we took time out to celebrate the sports successes of 2018 with our students and coaches.

We were excited to have Sunshine Coast Lightning and Australian Diamonds netballer Stephanie Wood speak with our students.  Encouraging them to put in the hard work to reach their goals regardless of the natural talent they may have.
