Today, St.Emilie’s were paid a visit by the Perth Scorchers cricket development team. It was fantastic to have them come along and provide our Year 3 Students with a fun filled Cricket Clinic.
We were also very lucky to have Perth Scorchers star and Australian Opening batsman, Cameron Bancroft helping the kids out with their activities.
He also took the time to sign some autographs and have some great conversations with our students.
Our Year 3 Students completed a number of cricket based activities that included catching, throwing and fielding skills.
Some of our students were even lucky enough to receive prizes, which included a signed cricket bat!
Students who are interested in playing cricket can attend a ‘come and try’ session at Ranford Primary School this Saturday between 10am -2pm

The St.Emilie’s Cross Country team have won the 2018 Inter-School Competition!
Our Year 4 students got us off to a flying start with Reece (runner up), Lila, Taylah and Allira all recording strong finishing positions.
Our Year 5 events were highlighted by Jessica L, who blew her opposition out of the water to win the Girls event. Caitlyn M also featured promininently in this event, finishing 3rd. While Jacob finished strongly to run 2nd in the Boys event.
Our Year 6 students finished the meet off strongly, with Alex putting in a huge final sprint to win the Boys event.
The Girls were very consistent in their event, with Loren, Chloe and Annette all featuring in the top 10.
Full credit must be given to all St.Emilie’s runners. The effort, attitude and support they gave each other was outstanding.
Many of our runners also turned up early to school for extra training sessions throughout last Term, and our students are fully deserving of the success they had today.

In March this year Oliver from Year 3 competed in the BMX Australian National Championships that were held at the Bunbury BMX raceway. and he finished 10th in Australia.
There were 60 boys in his age group, which represented the top few riders of approximately100 racing clubs around Australia.
He has now earned himself the opportunity and qualified to represent Australia in the UCI BMX World Championships that will be held in Baku, Azerbaijan in June.
What a wonderful achievement for a boy who has only been competing for 2 years! While he won’t be making the trip this year, if he continues to do well then a trip to next years Championships in Zolder, Belgium may be an option!
Congratulations Oliver on some impressive riding and all the best in your future competitions!
During the school holidays, our school was represented by two girls (Allira and Lila) from year 4 at the state equestrian centre in Brigadoon.
The competition consisted of 3 major events.
The first event was a Jumping competition. The aim was to complete the course at the optimum time, whilst negotiating 10 jumps of 60cm. Allira and Lila were outstanding and placed equal 1st.
The second event was Dressage. The aim in this test is to complete a series of movement that include a canter, a trot and a walk. Lila was placed 2nd for this test and Allira finished in 4th position.
The final test was Combined Training. This is test is a combination of Show Jumping and Dressage. Allira finished the combined test in 2nd place, with Lila finishing in 3rd.
This is an awesome effort from these two girls and we will be following their future equestrian performances with much excitement!
