Her MacKillop team went into the Grand Final undefeated in their pool but came up against a very strong Sydney West team and were runners up receiving a silver medal.

Term 3 House Sport Championship This term our Year 5 and Year 6 students competed in an OZTag competition at lunch time. The games were officiated by our Year 6 sports leaders and the spectators were entertained with music from our Year 6 technology leaders. All of the matches were closely contested with McCormack coming out champions after a challenging finals match against Deane. Congratulations to Riley who was victorious in our runners up final against Miriam. The competition allowed the student leaders and future leaders to model good sportsmanship, fair play and acceptance of challenging calls by the referees for our younger students.
