18.01.2022 Hello all, I just found out about the event below, this may be of interest to you if you are in year 12 or have a child in year 12.

18.01.2022 Just what we need at 2am to push through.

17.01.2022 The inaugural intraboarding cricket match 2021. Team Red captained by Lachie Nolan Team white captained by Jaxon Schell ... White won the toss and elected to bat first and got off to a strong start with Will Charlton retiring after a half century and the steady runs kept coming for the white team throughout the day. Some great catches from Team red led by Lachie Nolan himself ensured that partnerships could not kick on. Team white finished with a respectable total of 169 from 20 overs. Team Red went into bat knowing they had to get off to a hot start. Nolan and Siemer entered and started well but wickets started to crumble when leg spinner Yarra Mickan entered from the dining hall end taking 2 wickets in the over. Lachie Nolan kept composure fighting on with a ball to the elbow and retired graciously at drinks. His brother Angus then appeared from the health centre end taking 2 wickets in his over and a run out to send team Red into despair. Magnificently in came Tom Dolling the games eventual MVP hitting 48* to punish the white team and reaching 170 with 2 overs left. Credit is also due to Will Charlick smacking 3 6s in the last over to ensure victory was even more bitter sweet. A great day for cricket and the boarding house and the stat of hopefully an annual event for our boarding community.
