Around the grounds

Welcome back to sport for 2023.  

Firstly, thank you to everyone who made sports possible in 2022. The sacrifices from staff and parents to help students participate in school or representative sport is huge. It is a vital part of many of our lives and I would like to continue providing students from Mount Carmel every opportunity possible to succeed this year. These sacrifices helped Mount Carmel be so successful in the Wollongong MISA competition and other representative events. We have a huge calendar coming up this term with sporting events nearly every week. You will find information below regarding school sport, MISA, DIO and NSWCCC events.  A few of our students have been successful over the break. Let us please congratulate the following students:

Cadence Sultana YR10 - Gymnastics

Cadence Sultana has been invited to join an Australian gymnastics team to perform at World Gymnaestrada 2023 in Amsterdam throughout July next year. The World Gymnaestrada is a world-wide event held every four years, attracting over 20,000 athletes from over 50 nations.

 Deniel Vermeulen YR9 - Karting

Deniel took part in her first National event in Albury this past weekend. The Pink Plate is an all-girls race with women and girls coming from all over the country. Deniel got the win in the fastest category for the weekend and brought home the Pink Plate. 

A huge congratulations to both girls on their huge achievements over the break. If anyone has news on great achievements outside of school.
