AFLQ Schools Cup
Congratulations to our Senior Girls and Senior Boys AFL teams who competed at the AFLQ Schools Cup. The Top 2 teams from each division earned a promotion to the Regional Cup in July. Our girls won 3 out of their 4 games, and were promoted, but unfortunately our boys list their Pool A Grand Final and have finished their AFL season. Well done to Mr Cope who has been running training sessions every Thursday afternoon since Term 1. Good luck to the girls who are still going.

Sports Fun Days
In Week 10, we held our 3 Sports Fun Days over 3 big days. We began each day with our Lap and Sprint Races, and then completed out Tabloid Events in the middle session. Thanks to everyone who who supported the event by wearing their colours, cheering for their mates, trying their hardest and sharing the house spirit. We were super impressed with the Heads of House and their Year 6 Helpers, who came in early to help set up and stayed out over the three days to support the students of Coomera Rivers. They have done an amazing job.
After a huge 3 days, the house points came down to the wire.... see below for the results.
