Girls Primary School CIS Football

Well done to Ava and Isabella Lotkin ,who represented Emanuel School and ASISSA at the trials on Monday 13 March 2023. Both girls acquitted themselves well as they participated a round robin competition, vying for selection in the CIS team. Head of Football, Aytek Genc commented that the girls are good players and very active on the football pitch. Although missing out on selection this year, the girls will no doubt return to try their luck in 2024.

Year 4 and 5 Inter-School Sport

On Thursday afternoons throughout Term 1, our Years 5 and 6 students have been involved in an inter-school sport competition at Queens Park against other schools in the ASISSA association. Girls have been playing touch football and boys have been playing a modified version of AFL. It has been very pleasing to see the skill development and camaraderie flourish over the competition.

Aidan Zlotnick – Head of Basketball

Boys and Girls Primary School Basketball

On Friday 10 March 2023, Cooper Rosen and Sophia Kirievskaya, both in Year 6, travelled to Hills Basketball Association to trial for the Primary School CIS Basketball team. Both students were assigned to the top court where the best 20 male and female athletes competed to make the final CIS squad.

While both Cooper and Sophia were unsuccessful in making the squad, they represented the School well and competed to the best of their ability. Both athletes will continue in the Representative pathway through their weekly training and games for the Sydney Comets.
