School Sport with Mrs. Rachael Croker
Rugby League Legends Shield Gala Day
Unfortunately due to a lack on nominations, St Mary’s was unable to form a Year 5/6 team to compete on the day. We are hoping that 2022 will see us being able to enter both Year 5/6 and Year 3/4 teams, as this is a fabulous day to be a part of.
Good luck to the following Year 3 and 4 students who will be attending the Legends Shield Rugby League Gala Day on Tuesday May 4, at North Park in Goulburn, playing as the St Mary’s Year 3/4 team:
Year 3/4 Team:
Lachlan Pascoe
Patrick Croker
Charlie Tarlinton
Henry Galland
Jaydan Costello
Chase Lucock
Hayden Tarlinton
Andrew Lawson
Olivia Millett
Lachlan Kilborn
Coach: Dan Costello
Students will wear the following:
- School sports shorts
- School sports shirt (we will have jerseys packed as a back up dependant on the weather)
- Headgear- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
- Mouth guards- ESSENTIAL
- School hat
Please ensure that your child packs water, sunscreen and food for the day. There will be a canteen operating.
If you do not have transport for your child (private transport), please email the Office ASAP.

Cross Country
We were certainly blessed with fabulous weather for our Cross Country carnival on Wednesday making it perfect running conditions. Every year we are blown away by the participation and resilience the students show when running such long distances, and this year did not disappoint.
Many staff had conversations with students who were so proud of themselves for the following reasons:
- It was the first time they had participated in a Cross Country carnival
- It was the first year where they were able to run the entire track without stopping
- They finished their race and then went and encouraged their mates to keep going
- I found Mum a pine cone and raced with it
We as a staff always come back to school with such heart warming stories to share, and that is what participation is all about.
Congratulations to our super runners who finished in 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. These certificates will be handed out at our Monday morning assembly next week.
The first 6 places in each race will now progress to the Northern Region Cross Country, held here in Crookwell next Friday. Forms for this will be handed out on Friday of this week.
