Great stories from the sporting arena! Firstly, Emily Crutcher is back from Canada, having competed in her first international event - the World Youth Games. Emily is ranked number 1 female in the world in her age group (under 16) for high jump. It was all very exciting as well as nerve wracking for Emily over in Canada, and she was disadvantaged by an ankle injury. However, she now has the experience of an international event under her belt. Next on Emily's schedule is Paris (2011) and then Barcelona (2012). Of course, Emily also has her sights set on qualifying for the London Olympics. Go you good thing!
Matt Clarke is currently in Dubbo representing NSW schools at the national level, and our school team which includes Matt, his brother Joseph, Mitchell Steenbergen and Tim Walker are concentrating on making it to the state final. Congratulations and best wishes to all.
Congratulations also to Sammie Wood who has succeeded in achieving her long-held dream of being selected to play in the
Australian All Schools Under 19 Football Team. Sammie too has been plagued by injury in recent times and worked very hard to make the team. Last week she travelled to Melbourne with the NSW team to compete against other states in the national championships. It was during this tournament that Sammie made her mark on selectors, so that in January she will head off to China, then Japan to compete internationally.
