On Thursday 30th March, St Emilie’s took Thirty students to compete in the 2023 Inter-School Swimming Carnival.
This was the largest swimming carnival our association has had. With 7 local primary schools and over 220 students competing.
Our students have trained extremely hard this term and have given up a number of their Tuesday mornings in preparation for the event.
They should all be extremely proud of their efforts.
As usual, St.Emilie’s students displayed terrific sportsmanship and gave their best efforts throughout the day.
Two of our students received awards on the day:
Year 4 Girls Runner up Champion – McKenzie
Open Butterfly B Division Runner Up – Zane
Overall Team scores are listed below
A big thank you to all parents who got their children to early morning training sessions and supported us on the day.
Mrs Chamberlain, Mrs Yock and Miss Halton also provided terrific support and gave up much of their time this term to assist.

On Wednesday 2nd November, some students from years 5 & 6 travelled to Attadale Primary School to compete in a Numero Interschool Competition. Numero is a card based maths game that encourages problem solving and mental maths skills.
We have been practising our Numero skills for most of the year, and this was our big chance to see how we fare against other schools.
There were a mix of individual and team challenges, and then the final round was a Numero Scramble. For this event, students had to race between tables and a scoreboard competing to create the best mathematical equation.
“The competition was exciting and I was really happy to win some individual games to help our team” – Raf
“We had lots of fun and even though we didn’t win, we still had a great time” – Daren
Our fruit of the Holy Spirit focus this term has been LOVE. We put our poetic skills to the test by using imagery to paint a picture of what love is like, and used our graphic design skills to complete our LOVE TREES. We just LOVE the finished product 🙂
Yesterday, St.Emilie’s took a team of 24 runners to represent the school in the 2022 Inter-School Cross Country Carnival.
Once again, our students excelled across every year group and we were successful in winning our 5th straight carnival.
The overall points are below:
On an individual note, we also had a number of students receive Ribbons for top 4 finish and medals for a top Two finish.
Year 4 Girls – Liana was crowned Champion Girl and Lucy finished in 4th position
Year 5 Boys – Callum finished in 3rd position and Nalo finished 4th
Year 6 Boys – Zane was crowned the Champion Boy, while Tommy was 3rd in an extremely close finish
Year 5 Girls – Charli finished strongly to run into 4th position
Congratulations to all the students who trained hard and brought a great attitude to the event. Our students continually push themselves to be the best they can be.
Thank you to the parents who came along to support us/help pack away and provide a great source of encouragement to our runners.
