Participating in school sports offers our students so much more than just physical activity. It fosters teamwork, resilience, and self-discipline, while promoting healthy habits that will benefit students throughout their lives. School sports also provide opportunities for leadership and sportsmanship, encouraging all children to grow both on and off the field.

None of this would be possible without the incredible support of our volunteers. From coaching and team management to organising equipment and transportation, the dedication of our volunteers makes after school sports programs possible. As we approach the end of the school year, we would like to take the opportunity to thank each and every person who has volunteered their time to coach, manage, umpire and coordinate school sports in 2024.

We would also like to take the opportunity to make special mention of our sports coordinators, without whom after school sports would not run:

Jason Holmes – Basketball

Jon Ferris – Cricket

Kate Merritt & Nikki Maas – Soccer

Janita Bentley - Netball

After a number of years in these roles, Janita Bentley, Kate Merritt and Nikki Maas have decided to step back as coordinators of netball and soccer. These two sports have a combined participation rate of over 150 students. Ensuring that each and every student has the opportunity to be a part of a team is no small feat. As such, we would like to thank them for their commitment and for helping us foster a vibrant, active school community!

We are seeking a volunteer to act as the coordinator of netball for the 2025 season. If this is something you are willing and able to do, please email Kate O’Driscoll at Kate.ODriscoll722@schools.sa.edu.au
