SACPSSA Cricket Carnival

Last Friday 14 students represented Holy Family at the SACPSSA cricket carnival at Karen Rolton Oval in Adelaide. These students were divided into two teams for the day.

There was some excellent skills on show and all of the students competing and represented HFCS to the highest standard. One of the teams continued to improve throughout the day and the other team successfully won all four of their games.

Great effort by all those involved.

VSA Beach Volleyball Carnival

Suns out guns out!!
The 35 guns that represented Holy Family today at the VSA beach volleyball carnival representing the school admirably.
All 7 of the teams won multiple games with 3 teams making the finals.
The girls team consisting of Riya, Victoria, Kiara, Helen, Farah and Isabella were semi finalists. While two boys teams consisting of Sam G, Josh, Arnav and Kai played Solomon, James J, Aymen and Phillip in a semi final.
The first team progressed to the final but unfortunately came up a few points short in a tight encounter, but ultimately won the silver medal.
Fantastic effort by those involved and a special thanks to Jenna (Kiara’s mum) and Bianca (Nicky-Rose’s mum) for volunteering their time. Also special thanks to Emmaline for helping us out as well.
Such a great achievement for a sport their was rarely played within our school at the start of last year.
Great effort to all those involved

Remote Learning

Hey everyone,

We are hope you are all safe and well during this lock down. It is so important that we find a way to stay active during this time. I know we cannot leave our houses for exercise but there is a lot we can do inside our house and in the backyard (even with limited space).

Today i have attached a link to a website that we created with the help of international schools during term one. Some of you may have seen it but as the school was still open may not have needed it as much.

https://sites.google.com/view/intdistancelearningolympics/home?authuser=0

This website has a range of sports and skills you can try, and they give you examples of ways you can modify if you don’t have equipment.

If you look closely there is even a guest appearance from Mr White’s son who is a professional basketballer and Mrs Cooymans nephew who is an professional AFL footballer.

Have fun and if you have any questions about staying active during this time, feel free to email me.

Stay tuned to the PE blog for more activities.
