On Tuesday the 28th of August, two teams of talented students from St Joseph's participated in the Netball Gala Day which took place at Jamison Park in Penrith.
Our junior team which consisted of students from Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5 were victorious, winning five games and losing three. This team displayed true sportsmanship and teamwork on the field, working together to claim five victories on the day.
In addition to the success of our junior team, our senior team which was made up of students from Year 6 went undefeated and won in their division, taking home brand new shiny medals.
All in all this was a fantastic day of sportsmanship, participation and teamwork; a whole lot of fun was had by all of the students who participated. Congratulations to our talented students on their sporting success!
A special thank you to the parents who came along and assisted in coaching the team, your ongoing support is greatly appreciated.

Over the past few weeks, Year 5 have been exploring Geography in Action by learning how geographers investigate real places and collect data. Students participated in a schoolyard investigation where they observed different areas of the school, measured distances using steps, counted features such as trees and bins, collected information about surfaces and how spaces are used, and recorded their findings using tables, tally charts and labelled maps. Through this hands-on learning experience, students developed their skills in observing, measuring, collecting and recording data to better understand their local environment. Miss Atkins and Miss Lee
