Merri River School

FRIDAY was Primary Lawn Bowls Day!

Lawn Bowls is a great game for our students! It’s slow paced, repetitive….and every once and a while we sneak a winning bowl! But that doesn’t mean it’s easy! Figuring out which way the bowl will move, and how hard we have to roll it, can be tough.

But these 6 Senior Primary students headed off to the City Memorial Bowls Club to take on Allansford, OLHC and St Joseph’s. A huge thanks to those schools for helping our students out and being good sports!

Well done to Arya, Hamish, Archie, Tyson, Mav and Daedric for taking on the challenge!

A super effort from our Div 2 basketball teams that travelled to Geelong today for the Basketball Victoria Endeavour Cup! Both teams played three games, including a hotly contested ‘friendly’ against each other.

One of our teams made it through to the Grand Final, winning 27-17! Head to the comments for a quick video of the final celebrations!

Well done to all the kids for getting up early, and playing so well! Well done to Coach Sascha and Coach Sam!

Get along to the Rotary Book sale and support a great local fundraiser 📕📒📘

BASKETBALL TIME!!

Last week, a top team of Senior Secondary students competed in a basketball tournament against teams from Brauer College and Warrnambool College. Across three games, they played extremely well, defended strongly and scored their fair share of goals. Thanks to the other teams for creating a positive day!
