Eight students will now go onto represent the College as part of the Wollongong Diocesan Team at the NSW Combined Catholic Colleges Championships at Homebush.

A big thank you must go to our team official Mr Sovilj and team manager Ms Cornett for their excellent work with the students throughout the day and also to the loyal band of parents who came along to support the students.
