Congratulations to Emiko Curcuruto (Year 6) for her amazing effort at the State Cross Country carnival at Eastern Creek last week. Emiko represented our school and the diocese beautifully, demonstrating excellent sportsmanship and determination. Well done Emiko.

We have 28 students heading to the Western Regions athletics carnival next Friday the 5^th of August at Campbelltown Sports Stadium. We wish them the best of luck for their races and events. Thank you to our parent volunteers for helping on the day.

We were successful with our application for a sporting grant to conduct a Basketball Program in term 3. All students in year 3-6 are taking part in this 5-week program. Thank you to Mrs Norman for making this happen, Moss Vale stadium for the hire of the stadium and basketball NSW.

Later this term St Paul’s will be hosting a basketball gala day for the Catholic schools in our area. A compass note came out on Wednesday the 27^th of July for you to register your child’s interest. Unfortunately, we can only have one junior boy, one junior girl, one senior boy and one senior girl teams. We will be fielding teams of ten, prioritising the eldest first.

Sports Master,

Josie Ponticello
