Jewish Day Schools Gala Days

Kristy Genc – Head of Sport | PDHPE Teacher | Year 11 Tutor

The Jewish Day Schools AFL and Netball gala days were held at Centennial and Moore Park last Thursday.

The AFL event was run by the Sydney Swans development officers and proved to be a very worthwhile day with the students learning new skills and scoring some exceptional goals. The Emanuel School team is to be congratulated on their improved performance and positive attitude. The boys were narrowly beaten by 4 points in what was an excellent grand final. Well done to Shai Farhy, Jack Goldberg, Joshua Gordan, Samuel Greenberg, Ethan Hirst, Aiden Kanevsky, Charlie Kerlander, Leo Latter, Saul Magner, Ben Maserow, Zak Michalson, Gideon Pozniak, Adam Rothschild, Jasper Selinger and Marcus Tsimbler.

The Netball gala day was hosted by Kesser Torah College and involved eleven teams from the schools involved. Emanuel had three teams playing on the day and all players had a fantastic day of netball. With an undefeated record throughout the day, one of the Emanuel teams progressed to the grand final. The girls got off to a slow start, but showed great determination to come back, going down in the end by just one goal. Congratulations to all of the girls who attended and in particular the grand finalists; Alexis Demos, Tess Endrey, Lucinda Labi, Eden Levit, Mariah Lewy, Charlotte New, Ava Rose, Brooke Rosen and Clio Stockley.
