Emanuel Open Girls and Boys Football Teams

It has been an exciting start to the year for the Emanuel Football Program, with a three day camp to start the year – held at Waverley Football and a preseason match against Moriah College on Day 3.

The Emanuel Open Boys Football Teams Played their Round 1 of the NSWCIS Cup last week. The open boys were victorious in defeating Redlands 5-1. Noteworthy performances from Reece Carr, who knocked in two impressive goals to help secure the win.

The Emanuel Open Girls Football also played their Round 1 of the NSWCIS Cup last week and were unlucky leading into the match with four students having to pull out injured. Unfortunately we were unable to make the most of our opportunities and lost 3-0 to Danebank Girls School.

Emanuel Swimming Carnivals 2024

Years 3-6 Swimming Carnival

On Thursday 15 February 2024, students in Years 3-6 converged at Des Renford Leisure Centre for our annual Swimming Carnival. With the grandstand decorated brilliantly in red, green, and blue, the scene was set for a fantastic day.

The Year 6 House Captains led loud and original chants and war cries that saw the students in their respective Houses and parents alike sing along in unison.

Every race was great to watch, with many ending in a nail-biting finish and some quality times.

Congratulations and thank you to each and every student who swam on the day. The overall results below definitely indicate the closeness of the competition.

High School Swimming Carnival

This was held on a beautiful sunny day and it was a great way to kick start school for 2024.

It was pleasing to see so many students wearing their house colours and get into the spirit of the carnival by swimming with plenty of enthusiasm and passion. Our Year 12’s celebrated in style capping off the day, and their last Swimming Carnival, by swimming their lap of honour.

Well done to the High School Swimming Carnival Age Champions:
