This term has been full of sport and a wide range of opportunities for students at OLMC.

GSV Weekly Sports of Basketball and Cricket have been very popular.

All Senior sport is conducted over three weeks on Monday and Wednesday to enable Senior students to compete prior to their exam schedules.

Of the five teams, three teams were successful in making GSV finals played at the State Basketball Centre in Wantirna on Wednesday 26 November and all three finished within the fourth highest ranked teams in the GSV Competition - a fantastic effort!

We had one Junior Cricket team who finished third and a total of nine Basketball teams, of which six made it to GSV finals.

The finals took place yesterday with a squad of 45 OLMC Junior Basketballers setting out to compete at the State Basketball Centre in Wantirna.

At GSV Basketball finals all teams play a series of games and the winning teams qualify for the final.

In a first for OLMC Junior Basketball, all six teams played in the Grand Final round with a terrific display of team work and basketball skill. Grades A, C, D and E finished Premiers and B and F Runners Up. A fantastic result!

Congratulations and thank you to every student who committed themselves to OLMC Sport in Term 4. Your training sessions, games after school and attending a GSV Finals Competition on a Student Free Day was all worth it.

Thank you to all parents for their cooperation in ensuring their daughter was able to come along yesterday. Thank you also to the OLMC Staff Coaches for their commitment to the teams.
