Swimming Carnival

The House spirit was high and chants loud when Rabin House got ready to make a splash at the Swimming Carnival this Monday. Rabinites made waves and it was great to see everyone happy and ready to give their best. There were many close races with all 3 Houses giving their utmost and performing well. The day saw some great individual performances and the relays, at the end, captivated everyone. Rabin House’s junior, intermediate and senior teams swam like dolphins and achieved fine results. A special congratulations to the Intermediate Girls’ team who set a new record with several seconds to spare! The House Captains, your Head of House and Tutors commend you all on your efforts and we look forward to hearing how well we placed when Mr Francis makes the announcements.

World’s Greatest Shave

This year, it is the 20^th annual World’s Greatest Shave event across Australia. The initiative raises funds for blood cancer research and sufferers. Blood cancer claims more lives than breast cancer or melanoma each year and each day another 35 people will be given the devastating news they have leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma or another blood disorder. The Riesel brothers – Jacob, recent graduate, Adam in Year 11 and Jonathan in Year 7 will all participate and part with their locks for the good cause.

Rabin House applaud this fine initiative and hope many will take the opportunity to support the cause and the boys’ effort. A donation of any size great or small will go a long way to advance research and help individuals and families in need. For those wanting and willing to donate, please follow the link below to the sponsorship page where all proceeds will be go towards this fine cause.
