Results:

Game 1 - A hard fought team win 6 - 2 against The Hamilton Alexandra College Alligators
Game 2 - A close loss where we fought right until the end 9 - 12

Unfortunately our senior team missed out on finals due to percentage, but 2 wins and 1 loss for the day is an amazing achievement.

We would like to say a big thank you to the staff who ran the excursion and took care of our students, the parent's and carer's who took the time out of their day to come and watch our students and volunteer to help out and our amazing students. We are incredibly proud of them.
