What a fantastic day of tennis we had at our school’s inter-house competition! The sun was shining brightly, casting a warm glow over the courts as four houses – Oscar Romero, Mother Theresa, St Mary, and St John Paul- battled it out for the top spot.
The competition was fierce, with each house showing excellent sportsmanship and teamwork. The standard of play was extremely high, with all players demonstrating exceptional accuracy and control of their tennis racquets. We were particularly impressed with the number of precise shots and clever volleys that were executed throughout the day.
In the end, it was St Mary House that emerged victorious, taking home the top prize. John Paul House came in second place, with Oscar Romero House claiming third position. Mother Theresa House put up a great fight but unfortunately finished in fourth place.
Despite the competitive nature of the competition, there were only a couple of balls that went over the fence – but even those were quickly retrieved by our enthusiastic ball boy – Mr Mack!
The Year 6 students did an outstanding job as umpires, ensuring that the matches ran smoothly and fairly. Their enthusiasm and knowledge of the game were impressive, and they did a great job of keeping the players focused and on track.
We are thrilled to have had such a fantastic afternoon and to see everyone having so much fun while showcasing their tennis skills. It left everyone feeling tired but proud. Well done to all participants and congratulations to Red House on their winning performance!
