The bulk of the teams travelled to Nelsons Bay on the coach and stayed together as a team at accommodation at Fingal Bay. They were fantastic ambassadors for their school, diocese and a credit to their parents. The manners, respect and sportsmanship they displayed was outstanding and they were a pleasure to take away.

Thank you to Sue Dean, Kylie Jordan, Madie Easman & Caleb Hanrahan for their time, effort and expertise as Team Managers.

All teams did extremely well. 15 Girls were beaten in the semi Final and the 15 Boys were beaten in the Grand Final.

Three students were picked in the CCC Teams:

Jack Dean, Demi Owens & Mya Simmons. Congratulations to these students it is an outstanding achievement.

Thank you to our Team Managers Greg Pell & Eric Morris (boys) and Matt Knight & Stephanie Floyd (girls). The students behaviour was excellent and they were great ambassadors for our Diocese.
