Netball and Soccer Gala Day

This morning was a great time, catching up and finding out how everyone went on Wednesday. Some of Stage 3 went to Bardon Ridge to represent MACC at a Christian Schools Gala Day. The students who stayed at school worked on some individual projects that we have been working on at school. All students were commended for their excellent behaviour and participation.

The students who participated in the Sporting events showed great teamwork and spirit. All persevered extremely well and despite a number of losses, showed resilience and cheerfulness. Great Job everyone!

What did you enjoy the most about the Gala Day or being at school? What do you think was your best achievement? 

Sport is Awesome!

Being active is an important part of being healthy. Learning the rules of games and how to play alongside others develops good social skills, helping us to develop friendships and physical skill.

This year, as part of the changes that have been made this year in our school, we will be having House sport for our primary school students in Stages 2 and 3. Our House teams are Nepean, Nattai, Hawkesbury and Macquarie.  

We are learning the new skills of how to play a version of Softball called "Throw Softball". The game is played on a diamond with bases like softball. All the base positions are the same too! The biggest difference is that the ball is thrown by the "batter" instead of being pitched and hit with a bat.
It can be fast and furious at times, but is definitely a lot of fun!
