On Friday 19th August, some of the Year 5/6 students competed in the Connewarre District Basketball Championships. We entered a Boys and a Girls Team and we played at Bellarine Secondary College against six other schools. It was a great experience and our skills really improved throughout the tournament.
The Boys Team came up against some tough opposition and fought hard in every match. They drew against Drysdale Primary School and while they did not get many wins on the board, they enjoyed the challenge and played some great basketball. The Girls Team defeated both Drysdale Primary (6 v 9) and South Geelong (4 v 13) and showed great progress as the day went on.
Having the opportunity to play sport with our own friends and to spend the day meeting new people and catching up with friends from other schools was thrilling. It was a really great day and we would like to thank Ms Hales and Mrs Tolley for organising the teams. We really appreciate our parents coming along to support us and for scoring our games on the day.
A huge thank you also to Ben Thomas (former Clifton Springs student and son of Michelle in the office) who took on the role of coach for our Boys Team. It is always great to learn new things from people in our community and we are thankful he gave up his time to help us.
