SAPSASA Year 6/7 BASKETBALL CARNIVAL Wednesday 25TH July

We entered a boys and a girls Basketball team in this carnival. The boys team won 4 out of 6 games, finishing 3rd in their pool. The girls won 1 game, drew 1 game and narrowly lost 3 games by less than 4 points, and lost to the eventual winners by 10 points. It was a great day out with 2 very competitive, hard working teams. Thank you to Anthony, Vicki, Tyann and Shanice for coaching these teams. The players are very appreciative that they got the chance to participate in this event and to learn from your knowledge and skills. The students enjoyed the day, conducting themselves with respect and displaying great sportsmanship. Thank you also to the parents for cheering us on and supporting us on the day.

SAPSASA KNOCKOUT NETBALL

On Wednesday 13th June, we played Knock Out Netball at Eastern Fleurieu School.  We played a fantastic team game that reflected our school values however the home side of EFS proved too strong for us and we walked away with a loss. 

We started strong only trailing by 3 goals at the conclusion of the first quarter, however the second quarter was our undoing with EFS powering in front with a 10 goal streak.  We pulled ourselves back together well with a commendable group mindset for the final half but the damage had been done.  The girls fought hard and showed immense improvement as the game progressed trying new positions and having fun.

Thanks again to Co-Coach Jodie Edwards for scoring and timekeeping and Trina Doig for giving up endless break times to run practices with the team. Without your help these days and events could not occur. It was also great to see some family spectators and supporters there too. Well done to everyone involved and congratulations on a great effort girls!

District CROSS COUNTRY at Oakbank

We had 3 students who were invited to compete at Oakbank on Thursday 7th June representing our District. Congratulations to Poppy, Maddie and Mya. From all accounts the girls did really well and put in all their effort possible in very wet conditions. They all appeared to enjoy the experience.

Sapsasa Knockout Girls’ and Boys’ Football

The Girls’ football game was played on Thursday 7th June against Reynella East at Reynella East School. The girls tried really hard, tackled intently and put 100% effort in for the whole game. We unfortunately lost the game 4 goal 3 (27 points) to 2 goal 4 (16 points) which means we are now “knocked out” of the competition. Congratulations to the girls and their coaches Archie, Brandon and Thomas for their efforts at practice and on the day. Thanks to Tyann for accompanying us on the bus and to the parents who came and cheered us on.

 

The Boys’ football game was played on Friday 8th June at Victor Harbor High against Investigator. Our team had dwindled to 17 players before the first bounce, due to injury and absence. The boys tried really hard all day but were outmanned and out run, being defeated by a very experienced opposition. Every boy tried their hardest right until the final siren. We are now “knocked out” of the competition and have no further games for the rest of the year. Thank you to Brett for coaching the team and running practices with the boys, to the parents who watched and supported the students and to Paul Loughead and the students in the AFL program for officiating and organising the football game for us. This continued support from our local High School is greatly appreciated.

The Year 6/7 students were offered the opportunity to run, with Trina’s support, small PE skills sessions for our neighbouring Kindergarten students, twice a term, in Terms 2 and 3. Lots of students volunteered to plan and run this program, which was great to see. The first session was held on Monday 21st May 9am-9:30am. Congratulations to the Year 6/7 students who ran this program. They were all very organised and treated the younger students with respect and understanding. They all did a fantastic job. The kindergarten students had a great time and learnt lots from them. Well done to all involved. We are looking forward to the sessions in Week 8 and again in Term 3.
