During Term 3, the Year Sevens compete in a friendly school netball competition. Every Thursday and Friday, four pastoral groups go head to head in a match that promotes house spirit and builds friendships within pastoral groups. So far, Solomon 1, Providence 1 and McCormack are in the lead with two wins for these two weeks. They are followed closely by Kincumber and Solomon 2, who both have won one game. Penola and Cameron are still waiting for their lucky break. Keep up the good work, Year Sevens!
