Video message from the Sports Department

Dear Passionate Saints Boys,

If you are missing your coaches, sporting experiences, and friends we want you all to know that you are not alone. Sport and its associated values are very much a  part of our DNA, and with that we miss you, the lessons and experiences we would have gone through together both as students and coaches. We miss the opportunities to learn from each other.

A few of your coaches and teachers got together and reflected just how much we treasure the moments of triumph, value the lessons emanating from defeat, and overcoming the adversity that we would have faced as a team on our collective journey. 

We put a little video together to share our passion for you and sport at the Boys’ College. Please know that we are thinking of you and miss the TIME we would have spent together very much.
