Monday Night Netball

Well done to our PLC netball teams for another round of great performances.

SCISSA Volleyball

A tough week for our volleyball teams with some very tight losses across the board. Hopefully, with some training back on this week, we will be firing for the last few rounds!

Trish Buckley Volleyball

Well done to our Year 11 Girls Trish Buckley Volleyball team who competed well in two games last Friday night, ending the night with a draw and a win. We wish them all the best for their fixtures this week.

Competitive Sport News

A reminder that Netball skill sessions will be running on Tuesday mornings each week. Students who have signed up will be gaining valuable netball skills and knowledge from working with our Netball Coordinator, Michelle Dufty. If your student is interested in participating but has not signed up, please contact Michelle at mdufty@pacluth.qld.edu.au.

Student Accomplishments

Well done to Valentino Kelly, Sascha Cleland, and Joseph Modlin for their selection in the Independent District 13-15yr Boys AFL Team. Congratulations to Miles Romagnoli for his selection in the 10-19 years Sunshine Coast Regional Golf Team.

Congratulations also to Holly Targato for her recent efforts at the State Little Athletics Championships. Holly won a bronze medal and broke a club record with her Javelin throw.

Also, congratulations to Katie Graves who was successfully selected into the Regional Basketball Team Girls 16-18 years. Katie will be competing at the State Championships later this month. Good luck Katie!

4-6 Gala Day

Students in Years 4 to 6 will participate in their first Gala Day next Thursday 24th March. A parent information letter was sent home this week with information regarding this day. A reminder to families that students need to be at school on this day by

8:15 am for rolls for our teams to get away on time. Students are to meet their teachers and coaches on the front Gymnasium courts. 

3-6 PLC Cross Country Carnival

The Years 3-6 Inter-House Cross Country carnival will take place on the last day of Term One, Friday 1st April from 10:45 am – 1:00 pm at Meridan sports fields, adjacent to the College.

All students are to wear their house sports shirts on the day.  Shoes must be worn at all times and hats should be worn when not racing.  The course has a high potential to be muddy after the recent rain and I would encourage students to wear old runners and bring a plastic bag, towel, and a spare sports uniform to change into after the race. Students will also need to bring their plastic drink bottles for use before and after their race.
