State Cricket Final
Last Friday our boys and girls team competed in the state T20 cricket final at the WACA.
The boys played off in the final and lost narrowly to Applecross P S. The girls played off for third/fourth place and won against a team that had beaten them in the earlier rounds to be placed third. It was an amazing day and great opportunity to play on the hollowed WACA turf.
Thanks to Mr Powers, Leanne, and Amy for their coaching at the carnival. Thanks to the many parents and grandparents who came down to support the teams.
