Soccer Gala Day

The Soccer Gala Day was a fun, entertaining and inspiring experience for Years 3, 4, 5 and 6. This event was on Friday the 28th of July.  The Catholic schools in the Wollongong Diocese all partook in this occasion and the schools played each other in a friendly environment.

Though our school team lost a few and won a few it was a great privilege to represent our school in the Soccer Gala Day. Many people, though they have never played soccer before, played a part in this Gala Day.

We demonstrated characteristics such as, sportsmanship, courage and enthusiasm. Teachers and parent helpers were a great support for the students such as team captains and organising our positions and our roles. 

All in all the Soccer Gala Day was a great experience for us, it helped us to understand the main ideas of sport and sportsmanship. It was also great fun.

Western Region Athletics

The Western Regional Athletics Carnival was a fun experience for all the students in the Macarthur Region. The Athletics Carnival was held at the Campbelltown Sports Centre. 

The event had all types of events including field and track events. For example, discus, shot put, 100m, 200m, 800m, long jump, high jump and relays.

A few students from Holy Family Catholic Primary School got into the Wollongong Diocese trials. One of our Year 5 students, Divine, got into MacKillop Level. We are very happy for him and we are going to cheer him on as much as we can. 

We want to thank Mrs Rolfe, Mrs Smith, our Team manager, Miss Namrood and our parents for making this day an enjoyable experience for all Holy Family Students . 

In conclusion, the  Western Region Athletics Carnival was a fun experience for everyone.
