Athletics Day saw several records broken, including one from the early days of the College. Sean Daniels’ intermediate boys (U16) 100m record of 11.60 had stood since 2006 until beaten by Tristan Tulangi’s 11.53 seconds last week.

One of the many things Sancta Maria College has celebrated is the recent recognition of the 2017 prefects. Proud parents sat in the auditorium with their wide smiles as their children accepted their badges. The students’ integrity, kindness, humility and other leadership qualities have made them worthy recipients of these roles within our school.

It was a hot and sunny day when Sancta Maria College hosted its annual Athletics Day. The French Exchange students got the chance to experience a school Athletics Day for the first time because they don’t have this type of event in France.

A resounding voice echoes through the hall, causing shivers to travel down everyone’s spine.Everyone is silent; expectant. Beautifully combined voices create a perfectly matched harmony. The procession begins and flags of red, blue, gold and green parade down the aisles with pride. The Opening Mass of 2017 had just begun.

To recognise the achievements of the senior students a special academic honours assembly was held to congratulate them on their success.
