Richmond Zone Multisports Gala Day

On Friday, 29th August, our Year 6 students attended the Richmond Zone Multisports Gala Day — a fun-filled, non-competitive event designed to encourage participation, teamwork, and enjoyment.

Students had the opportunity to try a variety of sports throughout the day, including: NRL, AFL, Rugby Union, Futsal, Hockey, Table Tennis, Tennis, Soccer, and Touch Football.

The gala day was a fantastic way for our students to connect with peers from other schools, develop new skills, and enjoy being active in a supportive and inclusive environment. Smiles, laughter, and plenty of energy filled the day, making it a memorable experience for all involved.
