CSSA Gymnastics Carnival 

Emanuel School entered four gymnasts in this annual competition held at SGAC (Sydney Gymnastics and Aquatic Centre) at Rooty Hill last Thursday.

Our two Level 3 WAG (Womens Artistic Gymnastics) competitors Isabella (Bella) Larsson, Year 3, in her debut competition was so cute and Samara Kahn, also Year 3, showed talent gaining a 4th place on Bars, with potential in abundance.

Jaimee Adno WAG Level 7 (Year 8) who trains nine hrs per week showed great poise and elegance.

All girls competed on all four apparatus –  Bars, Beam, Floor and Vault.

The outstanding performance of the day came from Year 11 student Aiden Kanevsky, who recently represented NSW at Nationals held in Queensland.

Competing in Level 7 MAG (Mens Artistic Gymnastics) Aiden gained sensational results on all six apparatus:

1st Place:  Floor and Vault
2nd Place:  Pommel and Parallel Bars
3rd Place:  Rings and High Bar

These amazing results equated to Aiden achieving 2nd Overall.

NSW Netball Cup – High School 

Emanuel School was represented by three teams at the Netball NSW Cup held at Heffron Park on Wednesday 31 May 2023. This involved students from Years 7, 8, 9 and 10.

Competing against a range of schools from across the Sydney metropolitan area, the three teams participated enthusiastically and demonstrated a fine level of skill and tenacity throughout the competition. After the fast and furious round robin format, the Year 7/8 and Year 9/10 girls teams narrowly missed out on progressing to the next round. The Year 9/10 boys team won their section and will compete again in the coming weeks. More information to follow regarding their exploits.
