Sports

What A GREAT START TO THE BOYS HOLIDAY! Camp Discovery hosted us for their annual cricket tournament. More than 24 schools attended over a 4-day period.

An early start to the tournament proved very productive as both our U/11 and U/13 teams started with a very convincing win. With all the boys in high spirits this setup a great first night, filled with fun and entertainment for all.

An overcast cold Saturday morning greeted our boys, but not even the bad weather could dampen their spirits. As you can imagine playing cricket in these conditions can be very challenging, however, our boys were up for the challenge, producing another great winning result across both teams.

The rest of the day was broken up into game drives, indoor net sessions, fielding sessions and loads more fun and creative activities for all – this definitely ensured our boys had a good night’s rest that evening.

By Day 3 it was clear to see that Farrarmere Primary School had made their mark at Camp Discovery. With an unbeaten run of matches, day 3’s challenges, tiredness and exhaustion kicked in for our boys. However, they were still able to produce 2 great winning results.

As the tournament wrapped up on Day 4. All coaches and organisers certainly knew that Farrarmere Primary School had distinguished themselves from the rest. We would just like to thank all Coaches and Facilitators for hosting our boys and we look forward to returning in 2023.
